Dear community, I am using DESeq2 to perform my differential expression analyses. My question is, I think, very simple. To interprete the results if I have: > mcols(res, use.names=TRUE) ##To know the level of conditions DataFrame with 6 rows and 2 columns type description <character> <character> baseMean intermediate the base mean over all rows log2FoldChange results log2 fold change (MAP): condition SP vs EB lfcSE results standard error: condition SP vs EB stat results Wald statistic: condition SP vs EB pvalue results Wald test p-value: condition SP vs EB padj results BH adjusted p-values By exporting my up-regulated genes doing: write.table(as.data.frame(resSig[ order( -resSig$log2FoldChange, -resSig$baseMean ),]), file="UpRegulated.txt") Are my genes up-regulated in the EB condition? or in the SP condition?

Hi Alicia, Positive log fold change for SP vs EB means up-regulated in SP. Negative log fold change means down-regulated in SP. Mike On May 25, 2014 7:40 PM, "Alicia R.

Have a look at the column description: It says "log2 fold change (MAP): condition SP vs EB". With "SP vs EB", we mean that SP was compared against EB. Hence: positive sign means stronger in SP than in EB. > What about this example: (generated with > write.table(as.data.frame(resSig[ > order( -resSig$log2FoldChange, -resSig$baseMean ),]), > file="UpRegulated.txt") Please show us how you generated 'resSig' from 'res', and how tyou got 'res' from your DESeqDataset object. BTW, if you can your e-mail program to not wrap the lines, this would make it much more readable. Simon

Hi Michael and Simon, Here is my complete script for DESeq2: #open DESeq library("DESeq2") setwd("~/Dropbox/TESIS/DGEA_2.0/Chapter_4_thesis/DE_analysis/DESeq2") #Count matrix input matrix = read.table (file.choose(), header=TRUE, row.names=1) CeleDesign <- data.frame( row.names = colnames(matrix), condition = factor(c("SP", "SP", "EB", "EB"))) dds <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = matrix,colData = CeleDesign,design = ~ condition) dds #Est size factor = normalize for library size dds<- estimateSizeFactors(dds) dds <- estimateDispersions(dds) dds <- nbinomWaldTest(dds) #plot dispersion plotDispEsts(ddsLocal, ylim = c(1e-6, 1e1)) plotDispEsts(dds, ylim = c(1e-6, 1e1)) #Differential expression analysis resultsNames(dds) res <- results(dds) res <- res[order(res$padj),] head(res) plotMA(dds,ylim=c(-3,3),main="DESeq2") sum(res$padj < .1, na.rm=TRUE) mcols(res, use.names=TRUE) ##To know the level of conditions #filter for significant genes resSig <- res[ which(res$padj < .1), ] head(resSig) #filter for upregulated and downregulated genes ##up-regulated tail(resSig[order(resSig$log2FoldChange), ]) ##down-regulated head(resSig[order(resSig$log2FoldChange), ]) ##list most sig genes head( resSig[ order(resSig$padj), ] ) write.table(as.data.frame(resSig [ order(resSig$padj), ]), file="MostSigGenes.txt") write.table(as.data.frame(resSig[ order( resSig$log2FoldChange,-resSig$baseMean),]), file="DownRegulated.txt") write.table(as.data.frame(resSig[ order( -resSig$log2FoldChange, -resSig$baseMean ),]), file="UpRegulated.txt") 1. MostSigGenes.txt, DownRegulated.txt and UpRegulated.txt always have the same number of genes. This is confusing for me. 2. I understand then that maybe is better to only generate MostSigGenes.txt and then divide the result in 2 txt files: one with positive log2FC = upregulated and the other with negative log2FC = downregulated, right? 3. I don't understand with if I am entering the conditions like "condition = factor(c("SP", "SP", "EB", "EB")))" then is comparing EB vs. SP. I would have thought the opposite.

This is because in all three cases, it is the same table. You only change the ordering of rows. Here, you take the table with all genes ("res") and reduce it to only those rows with padj < 0.1: > resSig <- res[ which(res$padj < .1), ] and in your "write.table" commands, you always write out this table, but you re-order the rows.

Probably, yes. Depends, though, on what you want to do with the text files afterwards. If you want to look at them in Excel and this is the tool you feel most comfortable with, you could also simply write out the "resSig" table as is, with write.table( resSig, file="allSig.txt" ) or even the whole result table ('res' isntead of 'resSig') and do all your filtering and sorting in Excel. > 3. I don't understand with if I am entering the conditions like > "condition = factor(c("SP", "SP", "EB", "EB")))" then is comparing > EB vs. SP. I would have thought the opposite. R has the habit of sorting the names of the factor level by alphabet if you don't explicitly tell it the order you want. And then, DESeq2 compares by default the alphabetically last versus the first. If you want something else, just tell it what you want: res <- results( dds, contrast = list( "condition", "EP", "SP" ) ) to compare SP versus EP. Simon

Hi, I am trying to do: > res <- results( dds, contrast = list( "condition", "NR", "DT" ) ) Error in results(dds, contrast = list("condition", "NR", "DT")) : 'contrast', as a list, should have length 2, see the manual page of ?results for more information And it's giving me an error :( -- Alicia R.

Thanks! Just one last thing. I just did results(dds, contrast = c("condition", "NR", "DT")) and the number of most significant genes is the same as before (e.g. NRvsDT = DTvsNR) so I am assuming that the only thing that I am doing by specifying contrast is changing the polarity (what was -log2FC now is positive, and the opposite). But my list of genes is exactly the same. Am I understanding this correctly? So let's say that I have NR vs DT, whatever is log2FC is up-regulated in NR or what is the same, down-regulated in DT; and whatever is -log2FC is down-regulated in NR but up-regulated in DT, right?
