GSEA enrichment analysis

I tried to GSEA enrichment analysis. To do this, I try to make two groups such low and high expression groups. I try to find other articles what is cutoff percent. Cutoff percentage are diverse among articles.

Can i make two groups by myself ( such as low(50%), High(50%) or low(40%), high(40%))???

Thank you for reading this

I don't understand your question, but is it related to 'Question: Cut-off for genesets in GSEA?

Or are you talking about a cutoff for defining your candidate set for an over-representation analysis? If that is the case, this is not a GSEA, as GSEA is a cutoff-free analysis to test for enrichment. Read the introduction of this or this papers for clarification.

Thanks for kind answers. I did kaplan meier survival analysis by using RNAseq data in TCGA. And I found cut off value of survival by using cutoff finder. Is it ok make up and low groups by using cut off value of survival??

You can make what ever groups you like. However, I suggest your cuttoff should be a fold change, p-value, or even better a q-pvalue
