Contrasts matrix for 3 groups
To identify the differentially expressed genes between each of the 3 levels of oxygen, you need to define 3 pairwise contrasts.
Diese Übung ist Teil des Kurses
Differential Expression Analysis with limma in R
Anleitung zur Übung
The ExpressionSet object eset
with the hypoxia data and the design matrix you just created (design
) have been loaded in your workspace.
- Use
makeContrasts
to define the 3 pairwise contrasts. Remember to use the column names from the design matrix without using quotation marks.
