  • How can I make a valid design for this data in DESeq2?

    So I have a problem with a dataset I'm working on. Here is information about the samples.

    Three viruses at three timepoints:
    Virus1_day1, Virus1_day3, Virus1_day8.
    Virus2_day1, Virus2_day3, Virus2_day8.
    Virus3_day1, Virus3_day3, Virus3_day8.

    And mock samples at a single timepoint:
    Mock_day6

    Here is a link to the actual sample information

    Essentially, using DESeq2 I want to compare each virus at each time point to the mock condition. I can't do this because the design model isn't full rank though. I have only a single set of mocks, from day 6, and the viruses from days 1,3, and 8. I want to compare each virus at each time point to the mock set.

    Specifically:
    Virus1_day1 vs Mock
    Virus1_day3 vs Mock
    Virus1_day8 vs Mock
    Virus2_day1 vs Mock
    Virus2_day3 vs Mock
    Virus2_day8 vs Mock
    Virus3_day1 vs Mock
    Virus3_day3 vs Mock
    Virus3_day8 vs Mock

    What I've done so far is to just separate the input based on timepoint, and then do my design matrix as ~ Virus. I really want to be able to process all of the data in a single set, however, and extract DE data for each comparison with something like,
    Code:
     
    results(dds, contrast=c("Virus","mock","ACali09"),alpha=signif_cutoff)
    Can anyone help me figure out how to make the design matrix correctly specify the contrasts I'm trying to do? Thanks very much in advance.

    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...
