    DESeq Design Issue

    Hi all,

    I'm new to DESeq and am having a problem setting up the design matrix for an experiment that has 3 biological conditions with 3 replicates each and an additional factor to take into an experimental batch effect.

    I have proceeded in the following manner:

    > library(DESeq)

    > data <- read.table("aggregated_counts_final.txt", header=T, row.names=1)

    > condition <- c(rep("Control",3), rep("Rods",3), rep("Cubes",3))
    > batch <- c(rep(c(1,2,3),3))
    > Design <- as.data.frame(cbind(condition,batch),row.names=colnames(data))
    > CDS <- newCountDataSet(data,Design)
    > CDS <- estimateSizeFactors(CDS)
    > CDS <- estimateDispersions(CDS)
    Error in .local(object, ...) :
    None of your conditions is replicated. Use method='blind' to estimate across conditions, or 'pooled-CR', if you have crossed factors.

    I can't quite figure out where I've gone wrong... it seems specific to my design matrix as this is very similar to the Pasilla data example, but that works fine on my system. I suspect I'm not understanding something very basic.

    My sessionInfo is as follows:

    > sessionInfo()
    R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26)
    Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit)

    Thank you so much, in advance.

    Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
    by SEQadmin2



    CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

    Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

    Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
    by SEQadmin2


    Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

    The systematic characterization of the human proteome has
