Dear List,
I have come across an article (Choudary et al. 2005, PNAS 102,15653-
15658) where they state that the FC values after RMA
preprocessing "always" remain below a maximum of 2.0 Is this right?
I have performed some analyses using RMA, quantile normalisation and
limma and am getting M values higher than 2, and if M = log2(FC), then
FC values are higher than 4. What am I missing? Any comments on this?
Thanks in advance,
David
