Hi all,
I have count tables from two species. I'd like to find the find orthologous genes between the species and compare how the orthologs respond to a treatment using DESeq2. My question is:
Should I create a dual-species count table containing only the orthologous genes and then run DESeq so all size factors can be estimated together OR should I do the differential expression on a species by species basis and merge the orthologous genes together once the log2foldChanges have been determined?
I'd like to make bar graphs of the normalized counts for genes across species (which I couldn't do if I process each species separately), but am worried that removing genes without orthologs will mess with the negative binomial distribution needed for the size factor estimation
Thanks for your help,

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
