# Differential gene expression analysis This differential gene expression (DGE) analysis takes as input samples from two experimental conditions that have been processed with an RNA-Seq workflow (see list of \"Upstream workflows\" below). DESeq estimates variance-mean dependence in count data from high-throughput sequencing assays, then tests for DGE based on a model which assumes a negative binomial distribution of gene expression (aligned read count per gene). ### Experimental Setup and Results Interpretation The workflow design uses as its fold change (FC) calculation: condition 1 (c1, e.g. treatment) over condition 2 (c2, e.g. control). In other words: `FC == (c1/c2)` Therefore: - if FC<1 the log2(FC) is <0 (negative), meaning expression in condition1<condition2 (gene is downregulated in c1) - if FC>1 the log2(FC) is >0 (positive), meaning expression in condition1>condition2 (gene is upregulated in c1) In other words, if you have input TREATMENT samples as condition 1, and CONTROL samples as condition 2, a positive L2FC for a gene indicates that expression of the gene in TREATMENT is greater (or upregulated) compared to CONTROL. Next, threshold the p-adjusted values with your FDR (false discovery rate) cutoff to determine if the change may be considered significant or not. It is important to note when DESeq1 or DESeq2 is used in our DGE analysis workflow. If a user inputs only a single sample per condition DESeq1 is used for calculating DGE. In this experimental setup, there are no repeated measurements per gene per condition, therefore biological variability in each condition cannot be captured so the output p-values are assumed to be purely \"technical\". On the other hand, if >1 sample(s) are input per condition DESeq2 is used. In this case, biological variability per gene within each condition is available to be incorporated into the model, and resulting p-values are assumed to be \"biological\". Additionally, DESeq2 fold change is \"shrunk\" to account for sample variability, and as Michael Love (DESeq maintainer) puts it, \"it looks at the largest fold changes that are not due to low counts and uses these to inform a prior distribution. So the large fold changes from genes with lots of statistical information are not shrunk, while the imprecise fold changes are shrunk. This allows you to compare all estimated LFC across experiments, for example, which is not really feasible without the use of a prior\". In either case, the null hypothesis (H0) tested is that there are no significantly differentially expressed genes between conditions, therefore a smaller p-value indicates a lower probability of the H0 occurring by random chance and therefore, below a certain threshold (traditionally <0.05), H0 should be rejected. Additionally, due to the many thousands of independent hypotheses being tested (each gene representing an independent test), the p-values attained by the Wald test are adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochberg method by default. These \"padj\" values should be used for determination of significance (a reasonable value here would be <0.10, i.e. below a 10% FDR). Further Analysis: Output from the DESeq workflow may be used as input to the GSEA (Gene Set Enrichment Analysis) workflow for identifying enriched marker gene sets between conditions. ### DESeq1 High-throughput sequencing assays such as RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq or barcode counting provide quantitative readouts in the form of count data. To infer differential signal in such data correctly and with good statistical power, estimation of data variability throughout the dynamic range and a suitable error model are required. Simon Anders and Wolfgang Huber propose a method based on the negative binomial distribution, with variance and mean linked by local regression and present an implementation, [DESeq](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/3.8/bioc/html/DESeq.html), as an R/Bioconductor package. ### DESeq2 In comparative high-throughput sequencing assays, a fundamental task is the analysis of count data, such as read counts per gene in RNA-seq, for evidence of systematic changes across experimental conditions. Small replicate numbers, discreteness, large dynamic range and the presence of outliers require a suitable statistical approach. [DESeq2](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/DESeq2.html), a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates. This enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression. ### __References__ - Anders S, Huber W (2010). “Differential expression analysis for sequence count data.” Genome Biology, 11, R106. doi: 10.1186/gb-2010-11-10-r106, http://genomebiology.com/2010/11/10/R106/. - Love MI, Huber W, Anders S (2014). “Moderated estimation of fold change and dispersion for RNA-seq data with DESeq2.” Genome Biology, 15, 550. doi: 10.1186/s13059-014-0550-8.

Sequence reads are first cleaned from adapters and transformed into fully bisulfite-converted forward (C->T) and reverse read (G->A conversion of the forward strand) versions, before they are aligned to similarly converted versions of the genome (also C->T and G->A converted). Sequence reads that produce a unique best alignment from the four alignment processes against the bisulfite genomes (which are running in parallel) are then compared to the normal genomic sequence and the methylation state of all cytosine positions in the read is inferred. A read is considered to align uniquely if an alignment has a unique best alignment score (as reported by the AS:i field). If a read produces several alignments with the same number of mismatches or with the same alignment score (AS:i field), a read (or a read-pair) is discarded altogether. On the next step we extract the methylation call for every single C analysed. The position of every single C will be written out to a new output file, depending on its context (CpG, CHG or CHH), whereby methylated Cs will be labelled as forward reads (+), non-methylated Cs as reverse reads (-). The output of the methylation extractor is then transformed into a bedGraph and coverage file. The bedGraph counts output is then used to generate a genome-wide cytosine report which reports the number on every single CpG (optionally every single cytosine) in the genome, irrespective of whether it was covered by any reads or not. As this type of report is informative for cytosines on both strands the output may be fairly large (~46mn CpG positions or >1.2bn total cytosine positions in the human genome).
