Hi,
I am working with microarray data and its experimental design is bit strange. I have 20 samples (expression at 5 time points, at 1 hr with 3 replicates, 2 hr with 4 replicates, 3 hr with 3 replicates, 6hr with 6 replicates and 10hr with 4 replicates).
I want to find the DEGs at each time point vs rest of time points. For instance,
DEGs at 1 hr vs rest of all time points (2, 3, 6, 10)
DEGs at 2 hr vs rest of all time points (1, 3, 6, 10)
DEGs at 3 hr vs rest of all time points (1, 2, 6, 10) etc..
My design matrix is as follows:
complete hr1 hr2 hr3 hr6 hr10
1hr:rep1 1 1 0 0 0 0
1hr:rep2 1 1 0 0 0 0
1hr:rep3 1 1 0 0 0 0
2hr:rep1 1 0 1 0 0 0
2hr:rep2 1 0 1 0 0 0
2hr:rep3 1 0 1 0 0 0
2hr:rep4 1 0 1 0 0 0
3hr:rep1 1 0 0 1 0 0
3hr:rep2 1 0 0 1 0 0
3hr:rep3 1 0 0 1 0 0
6hr:rep1 1 0 0 0 1 0
6hr:rep2 1 0 0 0 1 0
6hr:rep3 1 0 0 0 1 0
6hr:rep4 1 0 0 0 1 0
6hr:rep5 1 0 0 0 1 0
6hr:rep6 1 0 0 0 1 0
10hr:rep1 1 0 0 0 0 1
10hr:rep2 1 0 0 0 0 1
10hr:rep3 1 0 0 0 0 1
10hr:rep4 1 0 0 0 0 1
Is this design matrix correct as per my DEGs comparison?
Moreover, I am getting this error/warning as Warning message:
" Partial NA coefficients for 20214 probe(s) ".
Can anyone help me what's wrong with my design matrix?
Thank you.
Please can you add the code you used to create the design matrix, along with a phenotype table.
Thank you. I got the answer from bioconductor. Link is provided here. https://support.bioconductor.org/p/85502/#85519
