  • Trouble with EdgeR

    Hi,

    A bit of background info. I am using the Trinity/ RSEM/EdgeR pipeline. I have 9 samples in total (3 conditions over 3 time points -NO REPLICATES - I know it's not been ideal).

    I have ran the following pipeline: http://trinityrnaseq.sourceforge.net..._analysis.html

    (I ran the No reps option for EdgeR).

    Now I am all rather new to this so please be as explanative as possible.

    I have carried out D.E.G expression between all of the samples and produced heat maps and output files ".DE.results" for all the comparisons I deemed suitable. I now want to be able to produce an MDSplot using EdgeR to compare the similarities between all 9 samples to see the similarity.

    I have R studio with all the much needed modules loaded. My data looks like this when loaded( see attachment image). Can someone please,please tell me how to create a suitable MDS plot.. I have attached my data file, however when I type "plotMDS(y)" it says 'too few many rows'... as you have guessed..I am a newbie with R too. How do I go about producing a suitable plot? Can someone please get me started? I have looked at the EdgeR manual,but I can't make much sense as i have completed the process automated, I am only wanting to produce graphical plots. It seems the only plot that came from EdgeR was the heatmap.pdf, is this normal?

    One more question, I have done genes as well as isoforms. I couldn't carry out GO annotation etc on the genes themselves,but for the isoforms I can carry this out. Is it fine to go with the isoforms for D.G.E and functional annotation? I can only extract the isoforms(transcripts) from the Trinity.fasta file produced from the transcriptome assemblage. Is this method correct?

    Many thanks.

    ------UPDATE--------

    OK, bit of an update... me being a newbie :/ I removed the ID column in Excel and saved the file and entered it back into R, I've attached and now can do the MDSplot function. I want to now ask, What is the best statistical principle to apply to the data?

    Bear in mind I have NO REPLICATES...

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
