Dear all,
I got a matrix from the last step(htseq count), and I need to do differential expression using that. My species is a fish, and the aim is to find the genes related to the air-breathing organ. I have 7 time-point for development stages with two replicates, here is my code for DESeq2, but it is just for 2 time-point (two replicates), I need to do differential expression analysis with there 7 time-point, I have read the manual and it still pretty confused. I'd be really appreciated if you can give me some suggestions on how to correct the script in order to do the differential analysis for the 7-timepoint.
**
library("DESeq2")
count_tab <- read.table("deseq2_matrix",header = T,row.names = 1)
colData <- read.table("sample_info.txt",header = T)
colData$condition = factor(colData$condition, c("A","B"))
dds <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = count_tab,
colData=colData,
design = ~ condition)
dds <- DESeq(dds)
resultsNames(dds)
res <- results(dds, name = "condition_B_vs_A")
res <- res[order(res$padj),]
resDF = as.data.frame(res)
resDF$gene_id = row.names(resDF)
resDF <- resDF[,c(7,1,2,3,4,5,6)]
write.table(resDF, file = "Chan21_chan51_DESeq2_DEG", sep = "\t", quote = FALSE, row.names = FALSE)
**
And the sample_info.txt is like this:
sample_id condition
chan2_1 A
chan2_2 A
chan5_1 B
chan5_2 B
so, if I use the 7 time-point, the sample_info2.txt will be like this: sample_id condition
chan2_1 A
chan2_2 A
chan5_1 B
chan5_2 B
chan6_1 C
chan6_2 C
chan7_1 D
chan7_2 D
chan8_1 E
chan8_2 E
chan9_1 F
chan9_2 F
chan10_1 G
chan10_2 G
