Use DEG for meta-analysis

Hi everyone,

I heve some DEGs(differential expression genes) from RNA-seq analysis,I want to use Methods that combine p-value for meta-analysis in R.

-How I import DEGs, one by one or I should combine all DEGs for import and then do meta-analysis?

-does anyone know any template for preparation input,I mean what should be Rows and columns,only genes and p-value?

I choose MAMA package,could you give me some suggestions about another package?

Best Regards Elham

I'd just run the code in the vignette, and find out the structure of the 'ColonData' that they use; then munge my data into that format. Regardless, I'd probably use a random-effects model over the effect.sizes rather than p-values, especially if your input datasets are of different power.

... Then I'd write a tutorial explaining how I did the meta-analysis for bonus points

You have micro-array data and DEG? MAMA is Somehow unfriendly package! do you know similar package specially designed for RNA-seq?
