I have some RNA-seq data for statistic analysis. I do not have biological replicate for the data, so could anyone can give me some suggestion how to compare the significant expressed genes between two samples using Fisher's exact test in R? Thank you very much.

Fisher's test tests for independency between rows and columns in a table so I don't think you can use it. In fact, with only two samples there is not much that can be done (there has been a lot of discussion on SEQanswers about detecting DE genes from RNAseq in the absence of replication). You can look at the DESeq and edgeR packages from Bioconductor, which can estimate dispersion in absence of replication, but again, the results shouldn't be taken as conclusive.Originally posted by beefeng123 View Post

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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM -
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...03-22-2024, 06:39 AM
