  • 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.

    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...
