Hello everyone, I was working on identification and characterisation of miRNAs using sRNA dataset. I have identified the miRNAs using ShortStack program. I have identified the potential mRNA targets using psRNAtarget program.
Now i need to perform the co-expression analysis of miRNAs and corresponding targets. which normalisation i should perform in order to make the comparison unbiased.
Do i need to perform normalisation for library size, mRNA size, and log2 (to control variance) all?
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks

My vote in these situations is generally rlog or vst. They implement both library size normalisation and variance stabilisation. I wouldn't control fo rmRNA size for co-expression analysis, as things are compared to themselves, differences in mRNA size are cancelled out anyway.
