Begin by recording in your wiki the number of replicates for each time point in your data.

  • Check the number of genes significantly changed. How many genes have p value < 0.05? p < 0.01? p < 0.001? p < 0.0001?

Bonferroni correction

  • Perform this correction and determine whether and how many of the genes are still significantly changed at p < 0.05 after the Bonferroni correction.

Magnitude and direction of gene expression

  • Keeping the "Pval" filter at p < 0.05, filter the "AvgLogFC" column to show all genes with an average log fold change greater than zero. How many meet these two criteria?
  • Keeping the "Pval" filter at p < 0.05, filter the "AvgLogFC" column to show all genes with an average log fold change less than zero. How many meet these two criteria?
  • Keeping the "Pval" filter at p < 0.05, How many have an average log fold change of > 0.25 and p < 0.05?
  • How many have an average log fold change of < -0.25 and p < 0.05? (These are more realistic values for the fold change cut-offs because it represents about a 20% fold change which is about the level of detection of this technology.)

Check expression of NSR1. Find NSR1 in your dataset.

  • Is its expression significantly changed at any timepoint?
  • Record the average fold change and p value for NSR1 for each timepoint in your dataset.

Check for gene with smallest p-value. You can find this by sorting your data based on p value (but be careful that you don't cause a mismatch in the rows of your data!)

  • Which gene has the smallest p value in your dataset (at any timepoint)?
  • Look up the function of this gene at the Saccharomyces Genome Database and record it in your notebook.
  • Why do you think the cell is changing this gene's expression upon cold shock?
