    When to integrate the negative control?

    Dear all,

    I am working on a transcription factor Chip-Seq analysis that includes the following samples:
    1. IP replicate 1
    2. IP replicate 2
    3. IgG negative control
    4. Input

    When is it suitable to include the IgG in the analysis process?
    By that I mean, once I have called peaks of my replicates vs the Input, should I call peaks in IgG vs Input, or/and does it make sense to call peaks in the replicates vs IgG?
    My first guess would be to call peaks all samples vs the Input and then substract the peaks found in IgG, but any comment is much appreciated!

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
