  • 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."

      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...
