    DESeq and technical replicates

    Hi,

    I am working on RNA-seq data and I have few biological replicates and one technical replicate. From the DESeq manual I understood that I should just pool the counts from the technical replicates and treat it as one biological replicate. But I would like to preform some kind of test before I proceed with the DE analysis to check that the technical variation is not significant between the lanes.

    I saw somewhere that it is possible to use scvplot to see that the technical noise is negligible relatively to shot noise but this option was removed from the latest DESeq version.

    My question is, what are the alternatives to the scvplot or what is the best test to do in order to measure the technical reproducibility? Is is expression correlation?

    Thanks,
    tamari

    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
