P-adjusted value of 1

What does p-adjusted value of 1 mean? Does that mean the differentially expressed gene is insignificant?

next-gen sequencing single-cell

Thank you for quick response.

Yes. It indicates lack of significance. There is no evidence for discarding the null hypothesis. Adjusted p-values and regular p-values are interpreted similarly in trend...lower means more likelihood of rejecting the null and accepting the alternate hypothesis (your favorite gene is differentially expressed).
