Hi,
In my lab they made a first RNA-seq run with single-ends, but because the coverage was a bit low they decided to make a new run on the same samples 6 months later, with the paired-end technology ...
The coverage with the Run #1 is 5-fold lower than with Run #2 (40 million reads). When I plot the 2 runs I obtain a fairly good correlation (r= 0.95).
So now I have the choice to work with the last run (paired-ends) but with NO replicates, or use runs #1 and #2 as replicates but with a mix of the paired-end/single-end technologies. I do not know what is the best solution here - do you have any idea ?
Thanks
