    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.

    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

    Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
    by SEQadmin2


    Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

    The systematic characterization of the human proteome has
