KEGG Enrichment Analysis

KEGG Enrichment Analysis is a bioinformatics method used to identify enriched biological pathways in a set of genes or proteins.

A KEGG enrichment example is shown in the following figure:

KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) is a well-known resource for understanding high-level functions and utilities of biological systems, such as cells, organisms, and ecosystems, from molecular-level information. The analysis aims to find which KEGG pathways are statistically overrepresented in a given gene list compared to a background or reference set, typically using statistical tests.

KEGG PATHWAY is a collection of manually drawn pathway maps representing our knowledge of the molecular interaction, reaction and relation networks for: 1. Metabolism; 2. Genetic Information Processing; 3. Environmental Information Processing; 4. Cellular Processes; 5. Organismal Systems; 6. Human Diseases; 7. Drug Development.

This application is conducted using clusterProfiler[1] (v4.6.2) in R.
