    upper quartile normalization

    I'm sure this has been asked before, but does anyone know how to perform upper quartile normalization on RNA-seq data? I cannot find a script to do this and it seems like it should be a simple matter of getting the read counts for each lane and then normalizing (but I'm not certain as to the statistical calculation behind this, although I know it is not complex). Thanks.

      Our DESeq package uses an internal normalization, and our Preprint explains why normalizing explicitely is a bad idea anyway.

      Maybe that helps.

        Goby supports Upper Quartile normalization since version 1.5. See argument --normalization-methods at http://campagnelab.org/software/goby...tation-counts/

          New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
          by SEQadmin2


          Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

          We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing

          How Immunogenomics Decodes Immunity’s Genetic Blueprint
          by SEQadmin2




          The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.

          This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...
