Proximity measure

The proximity measure implemented is currently the following. It consists of computing the over-represented pathways in the provided set if know genes and then use the Fisher omnibus procedure to combine the p-values of the pathways in which a candidate gene is involved. See Aerts et al., 2006 for more information.

Data

There is currently only one dataset available for Escherichia coli. The BioCyc/EcoCyc pathway data version 13.6 were downloaded and used. For each pathway, the set of genes involved is extracted and used as described in the Proximity measure section.
