I have got FPKM and some genes have really low FPKM and I am going to do stat analysis for all the genes; my question is the analysis should be like microArray analysis and need some cut-off numbers? any suggestion for this?

You could implement an approach like the one described in this paper: http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/...l.pcbi.1000598 in order to estimate the background RPKM/FPKM and arrive at a cutoff. It's based on looking at false positive and false negative rates based on a set of known genes and a set of control regions for which there is no evidence that they are being expressed.

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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
