Hello,
I have RNA-seq count data obtained from HT-Seq. I want to normalize the data using quantile normalization in R. Can I do that using Bioconductor package in?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Thank you. so far I just have the raw counts of genes expressed in each sample. Do I have to first convert it into the Matrix? I am not sure how should I proceed?
I do not know if there is a specific import function in Limma/Voom for HTseq counts. However, you can read your data into a single data-frame (or data-matrix) by generally following this code:
If you have a really large amount of files and a lot of transcripts, you may consider the
fread()
function in the data.table package, which can be used in place ofread.table()
(which I use above in my code) and that is quicker.Other things that you will have to define beforehand are:
Check the format of your HTseq files very carefully and be sure that you understand what exactly you are doing.
Trust that this has helped

Thank you very much, Kevin. This is extremely helpful.
No problem mate. Good luck with it.
