Given that the majority of multi-exon genes generate diverse functional products,
it is important to evaluate expression at the isoform level. Previous studies
have demonstrated strong gene-level correlations between RNA sequencing (RNA-seq)
and microarray platforms, but have not studied their concordance at the isoform
level. We performed transcript abundance estimation on raw RNA-seq and exon-array
expression profiles available for common glioblastoma multiforme samples from The
Cancer Genome Atlas using different analysis pipelines, and compared both the
isoform- and gene-level expression estimates between programs and platforms. The
results showed better concordance between RNA-seq/exon-array and reverse
transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) platforms for fold
change estimates than for raw abundance estimates, suggesting that fold change
normalization against a control is an important step for integrating expression
data across platforms. Based on RT-qPCR validations, eXpress and Multi-Mapping
Bayesian Gene eXpression (MMBGX) programs achieved the best performance for
RNA-seq and exon-array platforms, respectively, for deriving the isoform-level
fold change values. While eXpress achieved the highest correlation with the
RT-qPCR and exon-array (MMBGX) results overall, RSEM was more highly correlated
with MMBGX for the subset of transcripts that are highly variable across the
samples. eXpress appears to be most successful in discriminating lowly expressed
transcripts, but IsoformEx and RSEM correlate more strongly with MMBGX for highly
expressed transcripts. The results also reinforce how potentially important
isoform-level expression changes can be masked by gene-level estimates, and
demonstrate that exon arrays yield comparable results to RNA-seq for evaluating
isoform-level expression changes.
