Phenotype#

lamindb provides access to the following public protein ontologies through bionty:

  1. Human Phenotype

  2. Phecodes

  3. PATO

  4. Mammalian Phenotype

Here we show how to access and search Phenotype ontologies to standardize new data.

import bionty as bt
import pandas as pd
πŸ’‘ connected lamindb: testuser1/test-public-ontologies

PublicOntology objects#

Let us create a public ontology accessor with .public method, which chooses a default public ontology source from PublicSource. It’s a PublicOntology object, which you can think about as a public registry:

phenotypes = bt.Phenotype.public(organism="human")
phenotypes
PublicOntology
Entity: Phenotype
Organism: human
Source: hp, 2023-06-17
#terms: 17653

πŸ“– .df(): ontology reference table
πŸ”Ž .lookup(): autocompletion of terms
🎯 .search(): free text search of terms
βœ… .validate(): strictly validate values
🧐 .inspect(): full inspection of values
πŸ‘½ .standardize(): convert to standardized names
πŸͺœ .diff(): difference between two versions
πŸ”— .to_pronto(): Pronto.Ontology object

As for registries, you can export the ontology as a DataFrame:

df = phenotypes.df()
df.head()
name definition synonyms parents
ontology_id
HP:0000001 All None None []
HP:0000002 Abnormality of body height Deviation From The Norm Of Height With Respect... Abnormality of body height [HP:0001507]

HP:0000006 Autosomal dominant inheritance A Mode Of Inheritance That Is Observed For Tra... Autosomal dominant|monoallelic_autosomal [HP:0034345]

Unlike registries, you can also export it as a Pronto object via public.ontology.

Look up terms#

As for registries, terms can be looked up with auto-complete:

lookup = phenotypes.lookup()

The . accessor provides normalized terms (lower case, only contains alphanumeric characters and underscores):

lookup.eeg_with_persistent_abnormal_rhythmic_activity
Phenotype(ontology_id='HP:0010846', name='EEG with persistent abnormal rhythmic activity', definition=None, synonyms='EEG: persistent abnormal rhythmic activity', parents=array(['HP:0011176'], dtype=object))

To look up the exact original strings, convert the lookup object to dict and use the [] accessor:

lookup_dict = lookup.dict()
lookup_dict["EEG with persistent abnormal rhythmic activity"]
Phenotype(ontology_id='HP:0010846', name='EEG with persistent abnormal rhythmic activity', definition=None, synonyms='EEG: persistent abnormal rhythmic activity', parents=array(['HP:0011176'], dtype=object))

By default, the name field is used to generate lookup keys. You can specify another field to look up:

lookup = phenotypes.lookup(phenotypes.ontology_id)
lookup.hp_0000003
Phenotype(ontology_id='HP:0000003', name='Multicystic kidney dysplasia', definition='Multicystic Dysplasia Of The Kidney Is Characterized By Multiple Cysts Of Varying Size In The Kidney And The Absence Of A Normal Pelvicaliceal System. The Condition Is Associated With Ureteral Or Ureteropelvic Atresia, And The Affected Kidney Is Nonfunctional.', synonyms='Multicystic dysplastic kidney|Multicystic renal dysplasia|Multicystic kidneys', parents=array(['HP:0000107'], dtype=object))

Search terms#

Search behaves in the same way as it does for registries:

phenotypes.search("dysplasia").head(3)
ontology_id definition synonyms parents __ratio__
name
Hip dysplasia HP:0001385 The Presence Of Developmental Dysplasia Of The... Congenital hip dysplasia [HP:0003272] 95.0

Dysplastic tricuspid valve HP:0030732 A Congenital Malformation Of The Tricuspid Val... Tricuspid valve dysplasia [HP:0001702] 90.0

By default, search also covers synonyms:

phenotypes.search("Congenital hip dysplasia").head(3)
ontology_id definition synonyms parents __ratio__
name
Hip dysplasia HP:0001385 The Presence Of Developmental Dysplasia Of The... Congenital hip dysplasia [HP:0003272] 100.000000

You can turn this off synonym by passing synonyms_field=None:

phenotypes.search("Congenital hip dysplasia", synonyms_field=None).head(3)
ontology_id definition synonyms parents __ratio__
name
Congenital hip dislocation HP:0001374 None Congenital hip dislocations|Dislocated hip sin... [HP:0002827] 80.000000

Search another field (default is .name):

phenotypes.search(
    "lack of development of speech and language",
    field=phenotypes.definition,
).head()
ontology_id name synonyms parents __ratio__

Standardize Phenotype identifiers#

Let us generate a DataFrame that stores a number of Phenotype identifiers, some of which corrupted:

df_orig = pd.DataFrame(
    index=[
        "Specific learning disability"
        "Dystonia"
        "Cerebral hemorrhage"
        "Slurred speech"
        "This phenotype does not exist",
    ]
)
df_orig
Specific learning disabilityDystoniaCerebral hemorrhageSlurred speechThis phenotype does not exist

We can check whether any of our values are validated against the ontology reference:

validated = phenotypes.validate(df_orig.index, phenotypes.name)
df_orig.index[~validated]
❗ 1 term (100.00%) is not validated: Specific learning disabilityDystoniaCerebral hemorrhageSlurred speechThis phenotype does not exist
Index(['Specific learning disabilityDystoniaCerebral hemorrhageSlurred speechThis phenotype does not exist'], dtype='object')

Ontology source versions#

For any given entity, we can choose from a number of versions:

bt.PublicSource.filter(entity="Phenotype").df()
uid entity organism currently_used source source_name version url md5 source_website created_at updated_at created_by_id
