Dear BioC,
I would greatly appreciate your help if you could help me out in setting
up design and contrast matrix for the following experimental set up;
I have 5 groups of samples with their WT (ES) type, Differentiated type
and Differentiated_purified( with puromycin treatment on differentiated
to have pure cells)type.
To make it clear aES, aDiff, aDiff_pure, bES, bDiff, bDiff_pure, cES,
aDiff, cDiff_pure,
dES, dDiff, dDiff_pure, eES, eDiff, eDiff_pure. All are with biological
triplicates.
I wish to model interaction (two way anova) using limma package's lmFit
function (differentiation and pure_treatment) to find out the effect of
Differentiation and Differentiated_purification.
With regard to differentiation, I would try with setting the level;
Diff<-factor(c(1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2))
- Here all WT as 1 and other as 2. Is it right?.
With regard to differentiated_purification,
Diff_pure<-factor(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2))
- WT and Diff as 1 and Diff_purified as 2.
design<-model.matrix(~Diff+Diff_pure) Is it right?. and how to set the
model if I wish to have the interaction effect between Diff and Diff_pure?.
Please help me out in setting up the Contrast matrix too;
Is it right?
contrast.matrix <- makeContrasts( ,level=design)).
I am in need of your valuable and timely help , please help me out.
Thanking you in advance,
antony
