Overrepresentation Analysis
Overrepresentation Analysis
(ORA) is a
statistical method
used to determine if a
set of genes
, proteins, or other
biological entities
is overrepresented within a
larger dataset
, often in the context of
functional categories
or pathways. It helps in identifying
biological processes
or pathways that are more prevalent in the dataset than would be expected by chance, thereby highlighting potential areas of
biological significance
.
