Hello,
I have a question regarding regression analysis using gene expression
microarrays. I have microarray data of 16 arrays. Each 4 arrays can be
grouped by a mutation in a gene so we will have something like this:
Patient 1-4 Mutation in Gene A
Patient 5-8 Mutation in Gene B
Patient 9-12 Mutation in Gene C
Patient 13-16 Mutation in Gene D
My question is can use regression analysis to determine whether the
groups with phenotype MutA correlates with say MutC? or whether MutA
and MutB correlates with MutC? ..etc.
If its possible to do this what the best bioconductor package to use?
and would it give a p value to test the correlation between the
various phenotypes?
Many thanks
Ruppert
