  • How to fully use the list of DEGs in non model species?

    Hi ALL,

    I am a beginner of RNAseq study. I am working on the transcriptome of non model species, mussel and snail. In my first part of study, I have investigated the transcriptome of my target species. And then, I have done exposure experiments and RNAseq to determine the toxicity mechanism.

    Now I have performed DESeq2 and EBSeq, I have a list of DEGs. As the molecular information of my target species is limited, most of the assembled unigene/transcript don't have any functional annotation, and BLAST hit to NCBI nr. Say only 20% DEGs have their BLAST hit to public databases.

    I would like to ask how can I fully use the DGE data to reveal the toxic effect and mechanism? How can I deal with the 80% DEGs without annotation?

    I also performed GAGE using the whole transcriptome at background. again the unannotated may cause the few or no enriched pathway/GO returned from GAGE ><"".

    Please kindly give me some suggestions of data analysis and how to utilize the result data.

    Many thanks,
    Jack

    Hi Jack,

    I'm having the same issue and would like to hear some suggestions on how to move further. I have ~40% of Blast hits, many of them with predicted/hypothetical proteins.

    How did you perform GAGE? I'm trying to run it using my DGE results from EdgeR. How have you created the "kegg.gs" file?

    Thanks for your help!
    Cheers,
    R

      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...
