If the loading is <10%, then it wouldn't make sense to try to segregate according to that as it won't be very predictive. Just try to use the top N most variable genes and you'll likely get much more useful results. -
PCA analysis
Dear all,
I would like to use PCA to do initial subtyping of my RNA-Seq samples. But, I have questions regarding the loadings value (using prcomp in R).
It is fine if my loadings values for PC1(the one with the greatest variance) are less than 0.1 (magnitude)? or should I reduce the number of genes that I use in the analysis so that I can see increase in the loadings?
Thank you.

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
