Hi everyone,
I would like to recreate reaction norms of protein abundance data similar to this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4540970/
Essentially, a GLM with negative-binomial distribution was applied to gene expression data (count data). They treated the treatment (temperature) as a continuous variable instead of doing pairwise comparisons.
I have a protein abundance matrix (~1200 rows, 18 columns) with three treatments (6 biological replicates per treatment) with the treatments being different temperatures (10, 15 and 20 °C).
Now my question is how can I apply a glm to this data in R and sort by proteins that i) increase with increasing temperature, ii) decrease with increasing temperature, iii) show a U- or a Bell-shape and group the proteins together belonging to one of the above "reaction norms"?
I hope someone can help me out here.
Best
