multiDEGGs (Q7379052)

Performs multi-omic differential network analysis by revealing differential interactions between molecular entities (genes, proteins, transcription factors, or other biomolecules) across the omic datasets provided. For each omic dataset, a differential network is constructed where links represent statistically significant differential interactions between entities. These networks are then integrated into a comprehensive visualization using distinct colors to distinguish interactions from different omic layers. This unified display allows interactive exploration of cross-omic patterns, such as differential interactions present at both transcript and protein levels. For each link, users can access differential statistical significance metrics (p values or adjusted p values, calculated via robust or traditional linear regression with interaction term) and differential regression plots. The methods implemented in this package are described in Sciacca et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btad192>.
