Cell cycle data (59 experiments)

Comparison between hierarchical clustering (left) and optimal ordering (right) using the cell cycle data from the Stanford Yeast Cell Cycle Project . In this figure we used 59 experiments that combined three separate datasets: cdc15, cdc28 and alpha factor. In the Yeast Cell Cycle Project page the genes are assigned to five groups termed G1, S, S/G2, G2/M, and M/G1. These groups approximate the commonly used cell cycle groups in the literature. For each of the genes in these figures we plotted a dot on its right which represents the group to which it belongs (red for G2/M yellow for M/G1 etc.). As can be seen the optimal ordering correctly recovers the order of the groups in the cell cycle. In addition, using optimal ordering one can better reconstruct the groups themselves as can be seen in the case of the G1, S and S/G2 groups.
