  • Combination of paired-end and single-end samples in Chip-seq TF study

    I have 2 batches of chip-seq samples:

    (A) One biological SE replicate

    This batch, actually, consists of 4 SE Chip-seq samples - one treatment, one control, both have IP controls. All are SE sequenced at a lab A

    (B) Two biological PE replicates

    This batch consists of 8 PE Chip-Seq samples - 2 treatment, 2 controls, all have IP controls. All are PE sequenced at a lab B.

    The idea is to establish differential binding between the treatment and the controls. I plan to use macs and diffbind but I am open to suggestions.

    My first specific question is how to treat the PE samples. I see 3 options:

    (1) Treat all forward and reverse reads as SE reads

    (2) Take just the forward or the reverse reads

    (3) Treat each PE sample as, essentially, 2 technical replicates (one consisting of forward reads, one of reverse)

    I find (3) intuitively attractive but, again, I am open to suggestions. If I go for it than the model would need to introduce 2 additional factors - one accounting for the technical replicates, another for the batch effect. So far I have dealt with batch effects only - I presume that adding additional factor shall be straight-forward but, please, let me know if there are things that I need to pay attention to.

    Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
    by seqadmin



    The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

    Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
    by seqadmin



    Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
