Gene enrichment analysis on modules in the epilepsy-autism multiplex network. The enrichment analysis of different gene groups over the 14 largest modules in the epilepsy-autism multiplex network. The hypergeometric test was used to determine the p-value and the false discovery rate (FDR) is reported since multiple gene groups were tested. (A) The background of the hypergeometric test is the 1707 genes in the network. (B) The background of the hypergeometric test is 19,556 genes (the number of genes in the STRING database). COMMON GENES (WES) = genes in both the epilepsy and autism WES gene lists, COMMON GENES (HC) = genes that are both in the epilepsy 1 subgroup and autism 1 subgroup (high confidence), COMMON GENES (ALL) = all genes in both  epilepsy subgroup and autism subgroup, BD = bipolar disorder, ID = intellectual disability, BE GENES = genes that have significantly higher expression in brain tissue vs control tissue. For both A) and B), “***” denotes FDR < 0.01, “**” denotes FDR < 0.05, and “*” denotes FDR < 0.1, assuming a hypergeometric distribution. The heatmap was generated using seaborn version 0.10.0 (https://seaborn.pydata.org/).
