  • EdgeR Normalization Question

    I am looking to do TMM normalization in an experiment where you have to do pairwise comparisons between 20+ samples in replicates of three (A1, A2, A3 vs B1, B2, B3; A1, A2, A3 vs C1, C2, C3; B1, B2, B3 vs C1,C2, C3 and so on).
    I was thinking that I should normalize all the samples together and then do pairwise comparisons.
    I was wondering how I can get EdgeR to give me the TMM normalized values in a csv file.
    Thanks!

    There's actually no such thing as TMM normalized values. Normalization in edgeR is something that affects the fitted models rather than the data values. As the edgeR User's Guide says:

    "There are methods implemented in edgeR to normalize the counts for compositional bias in sequenced libraries and for diff erences between libraries in sequencing depth. These adjustments are off sets in the models used for testing DE and do not transform the counts in any way."

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin


      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 on Modified Bases...

      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...
