DESeq input table upload

[ndeshpan]

Hi,

I am new to DESeq (R version 2.13.1) and am trying to upload a tab delimited file.. (I am using the sample file "TagSeqExample.tab"), but I am getting an error..

==================================================

I tried my dataset (tab de-limited file) but with the same results.. I distinctly remember my tab separated file getting uploaded fine with the previous version of DeSeq (however I need to use this version to use a few new methods)

I have confirmed that the columns contain only numeric characters

Can anyone pint me in the right direction?

cheers,

Nandan

If I remember correctly you should first do the following:

over <- read.delim("C:\\Nandan\\TagSeqExample_top.tab", header=TRUE, stringsAsFactors=TRUE)
conds=c(rep("GZ", 1), rep("DZ", 1))

rownames(over) <- over$gene
over <- over[,-1]

This problem arises because non-numeric values are being passed on (the first colum counts as well). This way only numeric values are present in your count table.
Also check wether there are any empty entries in your table.

Hi,
I think the problem is in the count table (over). In your case the first column contains the gene name instead of containing the first count. You should be able to fix it by removing the first column and by assigning gene names to row names (untested):

over <- read.delim("C:\\Nandan\\TagSeqExample_top.tab", header=TRUE, stringsAsFactors=TRUE)
gene_names<- over[,1]
over<- over[,2:ncol(over)]
rownames(over)<- gene_names
## ...etc

Also, I don't remember the functions of DESeq exactly but I think the vector of conditions should be of the same length as the the number of samples so your conds=c(rep("GZ", 1), rep("DZ", 1)) is incorrect.
