1 How should we go about modeling this? gorilla GAAGTCCTTGAGAAATAAACTGCACACACTGG orangutan GGACTCCTTGAGAAATAAACTGCACACACTGG Model parameters? Time Substitution rate Can we observe time or subst. rate? What can we observe? 1

2 Maximum likelihood estimation First 32 nucleotides of the ψη-globin gene of gorilla and orangutan: gorilla GAAGTCCTTGAGAAATAAACTGCACACACTGG orangutan GGACTCCTTGAGAAATAAACTGCACACACTGG logl maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) of v is v plot of log-likelihood as a function of branch length v Knowing that v = rate time, Why does the curve drop as you move left of the MLE? Why does the curve drop as you move right of the MLE? 2

3 What does this mean? Why is this number negative? From A C G T JC69 rate matrix 3 3 To A C G T 3 1 parameter: α 3 Jukes, T. H., and C. R. Cantor Evolution of protein molecules. Pages in H. N. Munro (ed.), Mammalian Protein Metabolism. Academic Press, New York. 3

4 Equilibrium Frequencies A sequence consisting only of A... C T G A Perfume bottle broken, and perfume quickly fills the room 4

5 Equilibrium Frequencies If all doors are suddenly opened, perfume will spread by diffusion to the other rooms... C T G A The instant the doors open, the rate away from A is 3α (i.e. rate = -3α) 5

6 Equilibrium Frequencies C T G A Sequence now contains a few Cs, Gs, and Ts... AATAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAACAAAAAATAAA AAAAAAACGAAGAAA AAATAAAAAAAAAAA As perfume spreads by diffusion, the difference in concentration among rooms decreases... 6

8 Stationarity Assumed Models assume stationarity, which means that the state frequencies do not change across the tree Models assume that substitution process has reached equilibrium by this point 8

9 From 2 parameters: α β To A C G T K80 (or K2P) rate matrix A C G T transition rate transversion rate Kimura, M A simple method for estimating evolutionary rate of base substitutions through comparative studies of nucleotide sequences. Journal of Molecular Evolution 16:

10 K80 rate matrix (looks different, but actually the same) 2 parameters: κ β A C G T A C G T ( + 2) ( + 2) ( + 2) ( + 2) All I ve done is define κ to be the transition/transversion rate ratio = Note: the K80 model is identical to the JC69 model if κ = 1 (α = β) 10

11 Likelihood Surface when K80 true K80 model (entire 2d space) Based on simulated data: sequence length = 500 sites true branch length = 0.15 true kappa = 5.0 JC69 model (just this 1d line) apple (trs/trv rate ratio) (branch length) 11

If, in addition, all the base frequencies are equal, GTR is identical to JC69. If a = c = d = f = β and b = e = κβ, GTR becomes the HKY85 model. Lanave, C., G. Preparata, C. Saccone, and G.

16 So, how do you turn likelihoods into probabilities? this is the likelihood surface: Pr(data κ,ν) want probability surface: Pr(κ,ν data) apple 16

17 Kinds of probabilities B = Black S = Solid W = White D = Dotted Marginal probabilities: Joint probabilities: 17

18 Kinds of probabilities (continued) Conditional probability 18

19 Bayes rule provides a way to calculate conditional probabilities 19

20 Bayes rule shows how to turn Pr(D B) into Pr(B D) 20

21 The marginal probability of D is the sum of all joint probabilities involving D 21

22 Bayes rule in statistics Likelihood of hypothesis θ Prior probability of hypothesis θ Pr( D) = Pr(D ) Pr( ) Pr(D ) Pr( ) Posterior probability of hypothesis θ Marginal probability of the data (marginalizing over hypotheses) 22
