    RnaSeq vs Microarray correlation

    Hi all,

    I have an experiment with 80 samples both of them run with microarray and RnaSeq. I want to correlate the results between the two technologies.

    I received the results from the RnaSeq experiment in two ways:

    a) Raw data (fastq files)
    b)Table of ensembl id´s counts (no idea how this analysis was done).

    I did the analysis in two ways:

    1)
    For the RnaSeq experiment I took the ensembl id´s counts, translated them into Gene Symbol identifiers (various ensembl Id`s derived in the same Gene Symbol so I just used one of them randomly selected and the other ensembl id´s were discarded), and normalized them with voom (log2 with some modifications).

    For the Microarray experiment I normalized them (RMA) using a curated database (hgu133plus2hsentrezgcdf). I translated the entrez id´s probes into Gene Symbol identifiers.

    I did the correlation between microarray and RnaSeq (cor.test, two sides, spearman method)) and I obtained good results for all the samples (07-0.9). Attached figure 1 with the scatterplot of sample 1.

    2)
    I took the fastq files and analyzed them taking into account the HG19 GRC 37 RefSeq as reference. I translated the refseq id´s into gene symbol. I randomly selected one gene symbol per refseq id.

    Same microarray data was used for the correlation.

    I did the same correlatin as before but the results were worse (0.3-48). Figure 2 shows scatterplot of sample 1.

    My question is, does anybody have a clue about why starting with refseq id´s is not giving the same good results? Any clues?

    Thanks in advance.

    Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
    by seqadmin




    The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...

    New Genomics Tools and Methods Shared at AGBT 2025
    by seqadmin


    This year’s Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) General Meeting commemorated the 25th anniversary of the event at its original venue on Marco Island, Florida. While this year’s event didn’t include high-profile musical performances, the industry announcements and cutting-edge research still drew the attention of leading scientists.

    The Headliner
    The biggest announcement was Roche stepping back into the sequencing platform market. In the years since...
