    Assumption violation: Most genes are differentially expressed

    Hello,

    I have run into this scenario one time too many:

    Most (> 50 %) of genes are differentially expressed (FDR < 0.01) but the assumption for DESeq2 and edgeR is that most genes are not differentially expressed.

    I have tried searching but can't find a proper discussion of this.
    other small threads:
    https://www.biostars.org/p/52183/
    Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc


    I'm doing bacterial RNA-seq with biological triplicates; 2 different data sets, with many different conditions and in both cases I have had > 50 % DE in most relevant pairwise comparisons.

    Anyone have thought about how problematic violating the assumption would be or have alternative ideas for analysis?

    Thanks.

    How Immunogenomics Decodes Immunity’s Genetic Blueprint
    by SEQadmin2




    The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.

    This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...

    Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
    by SEQadmin2



    CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

    Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into
