  • DESeq: intepreting results from interaction analysis

    Hi there,

    I am using DESeq to infer differential gene expression in a 2-factor design. Factor 1 (strain) and Factor 2 (condition) each have 4 levels; 3 bioreps each totaling to 48 samples. I am interesed in identifying an interaction effect between strain and condition, on gene expression:

    > fit1 = fitNbinomGLMs( cdsFull, count ~ strain + condition + strain : condition )
    > fit0 = fitNbinomGLMs( cdsFull, count ~ strain + condition )
    > pvalsGLM = nbinomGLMTest( fit1, fit0 )
    > padjGLM = p.adjust( pvalsGLM, method='BH' )
    > DEresults <- transform( fit1, pval=pvalsGLM, padj=padjGLM )

    Attached are results for few significant genes. I am trying to understand the fold changes and p values.
    1. How do I identify which strain and which condition have a significant interaction, ie which comparison is the padj referring to? Do I need to do pairwise comparisons of each strain against each condition?

    2. If the Intercept represents foldchange ratio of strain1 : condition1, are the other columns subtracted differences in fold change?

    I can't seem to grasp the output, any tip is greatly appreciated.

    thanks

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

    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...
