# Finding COVID-related genes
- Biological information is contained in genes.
- Genes (DNA) express themselves by transcribing their sequence into RNA fragments (transcripts).
- Knowing which genes express differently between healthy people and COVID patients can help us to understand and cure the disease.
- We introduce some visualizations used in the search for those genes.
- This is done by sequencing blood samples and comparing the abundance of RNA transcripts in each group: "more expression, more abundance".

# The data for the analysis
- From each blood sample, RNA is extracted and prepared to be sequenced, a process that yields a large number of copies of each RNA fragment.
- Sequenced transcripts are aligned to a reference genome to know which gene is expressing each transcript. It is like reconstructing a puzzle.
- Gene expression is quantified by counting the numberof fragments aligned with each gene.
- This is summarized in the counts' matrix, with one row per gene and one column per sample.

- Ideally, one might expect that samples tend to be more similar within groups than between groups.
- Distinct techniques such as PCA or Hierarchical clustering are used to check this assumption.

# Biological Interpretation

# Interpreting the results
- Genes are annotated in different knowledge databases by terms or categories describing their biological role.
- The distribution of annotations of selected genes is compared with the distribution of the same annotations in the genome. This allows determining which biological processes might be associated with our gene list.
- We end up linking those differentially expressed genes that are included in the most represented biological categories using a network plot (bottom left-hand figure

# Summary
---
# In summary
- Genes that _express_ differently between biological conditions can be useful to characterize the difference between them.
- Gene expression can be quantified using high throughput sequencing.
- Expression differences between conditions can be established using statistical and bioinformatic methods.
- General and specialized tools are useful to visualize data, results and and to guide biological interpretation.
