  • about David, why one gene is calculated 3 times ?

    have anyone used David to do function enrichment analysis on line ?
    i have got one line like bellow:

    Category Term Count % PValue Genes List Total Pop Hits Pop Total Fold Enrichment Bonferroni Benjamini FDR

    GOTERM_MF_ALL GO:0015924~mannosyl-oligosaccharide mannosidase activity 3 2.70% 0.0026231466883225325 ENSG00000177239, ENSG00000177239, ENSG00000177239, 89 9 10048 37.63295880149813 0.998814050394877 0.9655623809603076 4.540783108986657

    that is in this GO:0015924 term, there're 3 genes, but identical, is this bug?
    thanks

    curious indeed.. did you find out where this comes from?
    Was the ensembl id triplicated in the original list of gene?

      i 've checked that, this gene id exist only once in both my test gene list and background
      i don't know the resason yet ...

        if you find out the reason, could you please let us know? thanks a lot!

          the reason is 3 different David gene id (that they used when do enrichment analysis) mapped to 1 ensemble gene id, the following is the answer from the David Guys:

          Ensembl gene id was integrated as a secondary source in the production version of DAVID. Therefore, the coverage is not the best and there are cases where there may be mappings for one Ensembl id to multiple DAVID ids. The latter is the problem with your examples. In the case of ENSG00000198744, it was mapped to 3 DAVID ids which is what is reflected in the chart report. We have recently finished a complete database update that now incorporates Ensembl gene id as a primary source which ensures a mapping of one ensembl id to one DAVID id and with full coverage of Ensembl. The new data is available through our Beta site( http://david.abcc.ncifcrf.gov:8080 ). Please give it a try and let us know what you think.

              Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
              by seqadmin


              Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
