Kinase Enrichment Analysis 3 (KEA3) infers upstream kinases whose putative substrates are overrepresented in a user-inputted list of proteins or differentially phosphorylated proteins.

Integrated Results
The integrated results provide visualizations and tables for results from the two integrated methods, MeanRank and TopRank. It is recommended to consider the results from this tab first before exploring individual library results.
Bar charts
Integrated rankings of kinases across libraries based on two different metrics. The MeanRank bar chart is color-coded by library; hover over a colored bar segment to view individual library rankings for a given kinase. The TopRank bar chart displays the TopRank score for each of the top-ranking kinases.

Tables
Integrated rankings of kinases across libraries based on two different metrics. Clicking on a name in the "Protein" column will open a Harmonizome page for the relevant protein-coding gene. Select a column heading to order the results by the values in that column; select an already active column heading to toggle between ascending and descending order. Click on the scores or overlapping protein counts to see more detailed information for each row.
MeanRank Score
TopRank score
Subnetworks
Kinase co-regulatory networks constructed from kinase-kinase interactions between top-ranked kinase results for the integrated rankings. Directed edges indicate interactions supported by kinase-substrate evidence; undirected edges indicate protein-protein interaction or unspecified interaction evidence only. Hover over an edge to view libraries in which evidence for an interaction was found.

Clustergrammer
The clustergrammer visualization of the "Integrated results" provides means to see the relationship between the top 10 ranked kinases based on the MeanRank and TopRank methods and putative substrates of these kinases detected within the input list. Each column represents a kinase while the rows are putative substrates from the input list that overlap with proteins associated with substrates of the top 10 MeanRank and TopRank kinases.
Sorry, there has been an error generating the clustergrammer visualization.
Tables
KEA3 enrichment analysis results for each KEA3 library are displayed in table format. Low p-value and high rank (low numerical rank) indicates significant enrichment for overlap between the query set and a gene set in the library. All tables are searchable by kinase name. Click on protein names and overlapping protein counts to see more detailed information for each row.
Kinase-substrate interaction
Kinase enrichment analysis results for different kinase-substrate interaction libraries. By default, kinases are ranked from lowest Fisher's exact test (FET) p-values to highest, with higher ranking indicating more significant substrate overlap between the query set and gene sets in the library. False discovery rates (FDRs) were computed using the Benjamini-Hochberg correction.

Networks
Human kinome regulatory networks were produced by applying Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to the ARCHS4, GTEx, and TCGA datasets. Edges are hidden to avoid clutter. All data was quantile-normalized and filtered to include only protein kinases prior to WGCNA. Clustering was performed in Cytoscape with the Allegro Fruchterman-Reingold Force Directed Layout plugin. Kinases are colored by tissue type based on the highest correlation between the kinase and the parent WGCNA module.
ARCHS4
Data consisted of 100 random RNA-seq samples for each of 18 tissue types pulled from the ARCHS4 database. WGCNA module eigengenes were correlated to ARCHS4 sample labels, which can be viewed by selecting the "Tissue" tab.
GTEx
Data is from GTEx gene expression dataset. WGCNA module eigengenes were correlated to GTEx tissue sample labels, which can be viewed by selecting the "General tissue" and "Specific tissue" tabs.
TCGA
Data consisted of 100 samples from each of 96 cancer types from the TCGA database. WCGNA module eigengenes were correlated to TCGA tumor types, which can be viewed by selecting the "Tumor" tab.
Subnetworks
Kinase-kinase co-regulatory subnetworks showing the top-ranked kinases from enrichment results for each library.
Kinase-substrate interaction
Kinase co-regulatory networks constructed from top-ranked kinase enrichment results for various kinase-substrate interaction libraries. Directed edges indicate interactions supported by kinase-substrate evidence; undirected edges indicate protein-protein interaction or unspecified interaction evidence only. Hover over an edge to view libraries in which evidence for an interaction was found.

Clustergrammer
This interactive visualization highlights the relationships between the most common kinase-substrate associations detected as overlapping with the input. Each column represents a protein set from a KEA3 library, while the rows are putative substrates from the input list which overlap with proteins within each of the KEA3 library sets. Rows and columns can be sorted by sum to observe the KEA3 sets with the most substrates.
