The enrichment coefficient can be estimated as: (3) ENR = CG / L / TG / T Where: ENR – enrichment coefficient, CG – the number of genes with detected expression changes in a given functional category in the experimental gene list L, L – the number of genes in the experimental gene list, TG – total number of genes in a given functional category, T – the total number of genes assessed.
TG – total genes in a given functional category within the total list T, CG – changed genes within the list L, ENR – enrichment coefficient, LOG10(p) – logarithm of p-value of one-sided Fisher's test of significance of a given ENR at a given group size, FDR – false discovery rate.
