Hi All,
I'm fairly new with miRNA analysis and have been teaching myself how to analyze the data (so please forgive me for my naive question). I gathered miRNA data from TCGA for the DLBCL data. This is level 3 data type. So I'm assuming that this data is already normalized and all the pre-processing has been done (is my first assumption correct?).
So now, can I start with my analysis by taking a log2 transform of the "reads per million miRNA mapped" and then applying FDR statistics? Or are there other steps to consider for the level 3 miRNA TCGA data sets before I start?
Any help or information will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
