Hi, All
I've also posted this on BioStars, sorry for the re-post (https://www.biostars.org/p/223635/)!
Is it possible (or reasonable) to compare a single RNA-Seq sample (without replicate) to a duplicated reference transcriptome?
In our experiment, we have sequenced the control treatment in duplicate, but all the other treatment only once. I was wonder if it is possible to use the duplicate controls as a reference to infer the significance (p-value) of the fold change in other samples?
It seems to me it is a simple t-test, but I'm not sure if it makes sense. Also, is it possible for us to use DESeq(2)?
Thanks!
