Hi all, I want to simulate counts for 1000 genes for 5 RNA-seq samples (with 3 biological replicates each), and I want to provide the dispersion parameters myself. Is there a package or code that can help me do this? Thanks a lot for your help, Al [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I should mention I want to use negative binomial as underlying distribution. Thanks.

You could start with rnbinom(). The 'size' argument is 1/dispersion.

Try FluxSimulator, or BEERS, both mentioned in this thread: http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5386 -Aaron On Tue, Aug 21, 2012 at 11:00 AM, Mark Robinson <mark.robinson@imls.uzh.ch>wrote: > > You could start with rnbinom().

There is also DESeq::makeExampleCountDataSet in the DESeq package. You could modify the function which currently doesn't contain any input args for the number of genes, biological replicates or pi0, proportion of truely null hypotheses.
