Hi everybody!

I submitted a list of gene to DAVID Functional annotation chart tool. I decided to used EASE (p-value) cutoff of 0,05 (from the DAVID publication on Nature Protocols in 2009) and selected Benjamini correction. Now I have problems with results interpretation. Is the Benjamini value the (i/m)Q value? So if it is bigger than my p-value, is my term significantly enriched? Or should I interpret the Benjamini value like a new p-value corrected already and is it significant if it is <0.05? (It looks strange for a multiple comparison tests).

Thank u


Benjamini correction is your false discovery rate and it is your adjusted p-value. So you should forget about your p-value after correction. So your test is significant if your adjusted p-value is smaller than criteria (such as 0.05 or 0.01). If you want to more about multiple testing, you can check [here][1]
