Before exploring the expression data, I want to obtain a list of mutation features that help predict COO. Here, I define mutation features as being a mutated hotspot or gene. This information will help evaluate downstream clustering solutions.
Two methods will be compared below. Both will be using the Lymphp2Cx COO labels as an approximation of ground truth. The first approach will use Fisher’s exact test to identify mutation features that are significantly associated with COO. The second approach will leverage a random forest model to rank the importance of mutation features.
Before ranking mutation features, we need to identify mutation hotspots, because some are known to be associated with COO (e.g. MYD88 and EZH2 hotspot mutations). For this, we are identifying recurrently altered codons, i.e. those that are present in at least 5% of patients.
hotspots <-
muts %>%
dplyr::group_by(gene, codon) %>%
dplyr::mutate(num_affected = dplyr::n_distinct(patient),
hotspot = num_affected > length(patients$rnaseq) * min_recur,
hotspot = ifelse(type != "missense", FALSE, hotspot),
feature = ifelse(hotspot, paste0(gene, "_", codon), paste0(gene, "_other"))) %>%
dplyr::ungroup()
hotspots <-
muts %>%
dplyr::group_by(gene, codon) %>%
dplyr::mutate(num_affected = dplyr::n_distinct(patient),
hotspot = num_affected > length(patients$rnaseq) * min_recur,
hotspot = ifelse(type != "missense", FALSE, hotspot),
feature = ifelse(hotspot, paste0(gene, "_", codon), paste0(gene, "_other"))) %>%
dplyr::ungroup()
mut_features <-
hotspots %>%
dplyr::select(patient, feature) %>%
dplyr::distinct() %>%
tidyr::spread(patient, patient) %>%
tidyr::gather(patient, status, -feature) %>%
dplyr::mutate(mutated = !is.na(status),
status = NULL) %>%
dplyr::left_join(coo, by = "patient")
heatmap_mut_annot <-
coo %>%
dplyr::filter(coo_ns %in% c("ABC", "GCB"),
patient %in% mut_features$patient) %>%
tibble::column_to_rownames("patient")
mut_feat_df <-
mut_features %>%
dplyr::mutate(mutated = ifelse(mutated, 1, 0)) %>%
tidyr::spread(feature, mutated)
mut_feat_matrix_all <-
mut_feat_df %>%
dplyr::select(-coo_ns) %>%
as.data.frame() %>%
set_rownames(c()) %>%

extract(, order(coo %>% dplyr::filter(patient %in% mut_features$patient) %$% coo_ns))
mut_feat_matrix <-
mut_feat_matrix_all %>%
extract(, colnames(.) %in% rownames(heatmap_mut_annot))
hotspots %>%
dplyr::filter(hotspot) %>%
dplyr::select(gene, codon, num_affected) %>%
dplyr::distinct() %>%
dplyr::arrange(desc(num_affected)) %>%
knitr::kable(caption = "Recurrently altered gene codons (hotspots)")

A simple approach to ranking mutation features is to statistically test for an association between a feature and COO status. Because this is count data, the Fisher’s exact test can be used. After performing BH multiple test correction, we filter for features with a minimum q-value of 10%.
mut_fisher <-
mut_features %>%
dplyr::filter(coo_ns %in% c("ABC", "GCB")) %>%
dplyr::group_by(feature) %>%
tidyr::nest() %>%
dplyr::mutate(fisher = purrr::map(data, ~fisher.test(.$mutated, .$coo_ns)),
p_val = purrr::map_dbl(fisher, "p.value"),
q_val = p.adjust(p_val, method = p_adjust_method)) %>%
dplyr::select(-data, -fisher) %>%
dplyr::arrange(q_val) %>%
dplyr::filter(q_val < qval_cutoff)
knitr::kable(mut_fisher)

Mutation features can also be ranked using machine learning. Here, we are training a random forest model to predict COO from the mutation features. A side-product from training this model is the feature importance, which we can use as a ranking.

Unsurprisingly, both approaches share several highly ranked features. A hybrid approach here considers the overlap between both methods, which should select the most informative genes.
When I consider the overlap, there are several genes that visually do not seem to discriminate well between ABC and GCB cases. One issue is that we are using the Lymph2Cx labels, which we guess are not perfect. Therefore, some cases might be on the right side of the heatmap, so to speak.

Here, I’m only considering genes with the most extreme ratio of ABC-mutated cases versus GCB-mutated cases. This set of more amenable to simple counting of the number of ABC/GCB-associated mutation features.
