In general, Bayes Factors are a bit like interpreting a p-value and the choice of cutoff for "significance" is arbitrary. The Jeffrey's scale is one widely used suggested scaling of significance...

You mean the same GO terms in both the up-regulated and the down-regulated group? If so, sure that's highly possible. Remember that individual gene differential expression does not necessarily tell...

A p-value tells you something about an observation relative to a distribution of possible data. That means you require a mean and some knowledge of the variance about that mean. Neither can be...

There are no universal housekeeping genes. Housekeeping genes need to be determined on a case by case basis. GAPDH can indeed be differentially expressed under any number of conditions. GAPDH has...
