Hi,

I was wondering how to get FC in gene expression from Log2 (norm_count +1), is it just log2 (FC) where FC = norm_count +1?

Also- how would you cite the Xena browser for the data?

Thanks!

Hi Saumya,

For understanding what norm_count is for RSEM, I've personally found this Biostars answer to be helpful: https://www.biostars.org/p/106127/.

And here's some info on how to cite Xena: https://ucsc-xena.gitbook.io/project/how-to-pages-1/untitled-2. If you use the TOIL data, please cite their paper as well: https://doi.org/10.1038/nbt.3772

Best,
Mary
