  • Strange results Deseq2 no adjusted p values or even p values

    I analyzed a RNASeq experiment with EDGE-Pro and the statistical test was performed with Deseq2.
    I obtained the following strange results for the statistical test for some genes (info regarding the number of counts for each sample is added):

    -----; Fold Change; pvalue; padj; CONDITION_1; CONDITION_1; CONDITION_1; CONDITION_2; CONDITION_2; CONDITION_2
    Gene1; -5.2; 0.003; NA; 0; 2; 0; 4; 5; 26
    Gene2; -5.16; 0.004; NA; 2; 0; 0; 4; 4; 18
    Gene3; -3.21; 0.019; NA; 5; 2; 2; 22; 3; 15
    Gene4; -3.64; 0.024; NA; 1; 4; 1; 3; 5; 38
    Gene5; -3.21; 0.031; NA; 8; 8; 5; 2; 2; 0
    Gene6; 1.01; NA; NA; 786; 65; 42; 228; 119; 281
    Gene7; -8.18; NA; NA; 5; 2; 4; 8; 6; 326
    Gene8; -30.19; NA; NA; 16; 20; 0; 502; 415; 1192


    My questions are:

    1) Does anybody know why I do not obtain any padj value for any of the genes?
    I wondered it was because for the presence of "0" but that does not match for all the cases (gene 3 and gene 4)

    2) Why do I not obtain any p value for Gene 7 and 8? They have a high variability but in any case I supposse that would not affect the statistical test (at least the could have obtained a P=1)

    Any clues would be appreciated,

      Thanks a lot for your answer, mbblack. You are right, that was my case.

        hi, you can also check the FAQ of the DESeq2 vignette:

          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...
