In my transcriptomics analysis, there are some genes that I am interested are significantly different, but not differentially expressed. I am in confusion if I really understand the concept behind what is exactly DEGs means now In my DEG pipeline parameters were;
pval_adj_method <- 'BH'
pval_cut <- 0.01
l2fc_cut <- 1
I have 3 time course - 0/12/24 hrs 4 genotypes - WT, 3 mutants (aox1/2/3) I compared each mutants to it's WT values at given time point e.g.
aox1_0h-WT_0h
aox2_0h-WT_0h
aox1_12h-WT_12h
etc.
From this output, only a few combinations showed they are DEGs
**Gene1_** aox2_0h.WT_0h down-regulated
**Gene2-** aox3_0h.WT_0h up-regulated
**Gene6_** aox2_12h.WT_12h down-regulated
However, once I plotted original values, I see other mutants also statistically different compared to their WT
What does it mean?
Does DEG (pval_cut = 0.01 l2fc_cut = 1) mean at a given time point comparisions'sor does it compare across all the time course?
For example, inf Gene 2, if aox3 considered as DEG why not the other 2 mutants? This is what confusing to me Would be grateful if someone could explain this kindly.
