I'd agree with that whereas if you were interested in GO enrichment of the 15,000 genes you'd then use the 70,000 as the background. -
Background set for GO enrichment analysis
Hello,
I determined that out of ~70'000 transcripts, ~15'000 are spatially regulated (I used the LRT method in DESeq2). The patterns of these 15'000 transcripts clustered into 15 groups.
I would like now to perform a GO gene set enrichment analysis for the transcripts in each cluster. It seems more logical to me that my "background" annotation will comprise the 15'000 transcripts, not the 70'000. Is it correct?
Many thanks !

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
