Hi,

I am a novice for R and bioinfomatics. I am trying to run DESeq2 with my raw count table (.txt). I have been trying to follow the beginner's guide for the DESeq2 package, but it is still hard to understand because my experimental condition is different from the example. Would you please help me to figure it out how to make a DESeqDataset and run? Thank you in advance for your time.

Here is my experiemtal design.

- Treatment: Control vs Treated

- Animal group: 4 genotypes in duplicate (genotype1-1, genotype1-2, genotype2-1, genotype2-2, genotype3-1, genotype3-2, genotype4-1, genotype4-2)

- Model: Treatment, Animal group, Aniaml * Treatment (interaction of animal and treatment).

I want to run DESeq2 with 2-way ANOVA-like frame work (2 treatment X 4 genotypes).

Which animal groups are treated and untreated?

ADD REPLY • link written 3.2 years ago by poisonAlien • 2.5k

Each treatment has 4 genotypes.

In other words, Control (genotype1-1, genotype1-2, genotype2-1, genotype2-2, genotype3-1, genotype3-2, genotype4-1, genotype4-2).

Treated (genotype1-1, genotype1-2, genotype2-1, genotype2-2, genotype3-1, genotype3-2, genotype4-1, genotype4-2).

So if I understand correctly, you have total 16 samples. 8 treated and 8 control, each with 4 genotypes in duplicates.

#form coldata
coldata = data.frame(row.names = c('genotype1-1', 'genotype1-2', 'genotype2-1', 'genotype2-2', 'genotype3-1', 'genotype3-2', 'genotype4-1', 'genotype4-2','genotype1-1_treated', 'genotype1-2_treated', 'genotype2-1_treated', 'genotype2-2_treated', 'genotype3-1_treated', 'genotype3-2_treated', 'genotype4-1_treated', 'genotype4-2_treated'),group = rep(c("gt1","gt2","gt3","gt4"),2,each = 2),treatment = rep(c("control","treated"),each = 8))

#make factors for treatment column.
coldata$treatment = factor(x = coldata$treatment,levels = c('treated','control'))
coldata$treatment = factor(x = coldata$treatment,levels = c('control','treated'))

coldata
group treatment
genotype1-1           gt1   control
genotype1-2           gt1   control
genotype2-1           gt2   control
genotype2-2           gt2   control
genotype3-1           gt3   control
genotype3-2           gt3   control
genotype4-1           gt4   control
genotype4-2           gt4   control
genotype1-1_treated   gt1   treated
genotype1-2_treated   gt1   treated
genotype2-1_treated   gt2   treated
genotype2-2_treated   gt2   treated
genotype3-1_treated   gt3   treated
genotype3-2_treated   gt3   treated
genotype4-1_treated   gt4   treated
genotype4-2_treated   gt4   treated

#construct DESeq object from input matrix (countdata)
dds = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = countMatrix, colData = coldata, design = ~ group + treatment + group:treatment)

dds = DESeq(dds)
res = results(dds)

But again if you post this on bioconductor support forum you will get proper suggestion from developer himself.

Hi poisonAlien,

Thank you very much for your help. I will try this and post on the forum as your suggestion as well.

I tried it, and got a following Error like below.

> dds = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = countMatrix, colData = coldata, design = ~ group + treatment + group:treatment)
Error in as.matrix(countData) :
error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'as.matrix': Error: object 'countMatrix' not found

countMatrix is your counts table. (as you mentioned in your question - raw count table (.txt).) You should read it into R before doing this.

Assuming you have named your table as 'count_table.txt' and first column is your gene names (or IDs), followed by rest of the 16 columns, organised according to sample names in above 'coldata'

countMatrix = read.delim("count_table.txt",sep='\t',row.names = 1)

then try running above code.

There was no error, but give some message below,

> dds = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = countMatrix, colData = coldata, design = ~ group + treatment + group:treatment)
it appears that the last variable in the design formula, 'treatment', has a factor level, 'control', which is not the base level. we recommend you use factor(...,levels=...) or relevel() to set this as the base level before proceeding. for more information, please see the 'Note on factor levels' in vignette('DESeq2').

Ahh ! I The warning because reference level is treated here. See the edit above.

I can't say much about your results. But regarding the above error, your first column must start with counts. Here your first column is ID's, which should be rowanames. While reading the table, use row.names = 1, which makes first columns as rowanmes. Anyways here is it.

library("DESeq2")

countMatrix = read.table("~/Desktop/KiPBSvsPIC.txt",header = T,row.names = 1)

coldata = data.frame(row.names = colnames(countMatrix),group = rep(c("gt1","gt2","gt3","gt4"),2,each = 2),treatment = rep(c("control","treated"),each = 8))

coldata$treatment = factor(x = coldata$treatment,levels = c('control','treated'))

dds = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = countMatrix, colData = coldata, design = ~ group + treatment + group:treatment)

dds = DESeq(dds)
res = results(dds)

#order results according adjusted p-value
res = res[order(res$padj),]

#get degs based on fdr < 0.1
degs = res[which(res$padj < 0.1),]

Hi, I am just bit confused.. I run the following script on R version 3.2 and everything was fine:

conds<- c("kd1.1","kd1.2","kd2.1","kd2.2","ctrl1.1","ctrl1.2")
Design<-data.frame(condition=conds,row.names=paste(conds,rep(c(1,2),3),sep="_"))
dds <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = assay(se),
                             colData = Design,
                             design = ~ condition)

however, when I updated R into 3.3 I start getting the following error message:

Error in FUN(X[[i]], ...) : 
  assay colnames() must be NULL or equal colData rownames()

I tried to follow many solutions but non of them worked .

can anyone help

thanks much

Late, but the error is reported in the manual of the new version. It seems a known issue after the update to 3.3: https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/manuals/DESeq2/man/DESeq2.pdf "Note on the error message "assay colnames() must be NULL or equal colData rownames()": this means that the colnames of countData are different than the rownames of colData. Fix this with: colnames(countData) <- NULL"
