Hi all, I have a RNAseq data to analyse were I have a control and a one treatment for different individuals. I need to block the effects of the individual, but I am having several troubles to get the data that I need. I am using voom because my data is very heterogeneous and voom seams to do a good job normalising my reads.
I am having the following issues: 1. I want to get the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of my treatment not of my control. I don't understand after the eBayes analysis why I get the coefficients for both. I have tried a > makeContrasts (TreatvsCont= c2-co, levels = design) to subtract the control effect but then I get 0 DEGs. 2. I am not sure when to include the 0 (null model) in the model formula, I have read examples for both types of models. This are my targets, with my column names of my counts, individual and condition >targets Individual condition A1 1 co A2 3 co A4 4 co A5 5 co E1 1 c2 E2 2 c2 E3 3 c2 E4 4 c2 E5 5 c2 This is the code I have been trying: >co2=as.matrix(read.table("2014_04_02_1h_PB.csv",header=T, sep=",", row.names=1)) >nf = calcNormFactors (co2) >targets= read.table ("targets.csv", header = T, sep=",",row.names=1) >treat <- factor (targets$condition, levels= c("co", "c2")) >design <- model.matrix(~0+treat) >colnames (design) <- levels (treat) >y <- voom(co2,design,lib.size=colSums(co2)*nf) >corfit <- duplicateCorrelation(y,design,block=targets$Individual) >fit <- lmFit(y,design,block=targets$Individual,correlation=corfit$consensus) >fit2<- eBayes (fit) >results_trt <- topTable (fit2, coef="c2", n=nrow (y), sort.by="none") >From which gives me 18,000 genes with adj.P.Val < 0.01 out of 22,000 genes that I have in total. Which makes no sense.. Thanks in advance for the help.
