Next Generation Sequencing Quantitative Analysis of Wild Type and Mki67-/- 3T3 cell transcriptomes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose: The goals of this study were to compare gene expression profiles of mouse NIH/3T3 cells with intact or disrupted Mki67 gene. Methods: mRNA profiles of wild-type (WT) and two clones of Ki-67 knockout (Mki67−/−) mouse NIH/3T3 cells, all in duplicate, were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq2500 in single-end read mode, 50bp. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were aligned to the mouse genome, quantified, and differential gene expression (DGE) analysis was performed using DEseq2. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 30 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse genome (GRCm38.p6) and identified differentially expressed genes. This revealed widespread changes in gene expression, with 2558 genes significantly deregulated in independent clones of Mki67-/- cells (q < 0.05) Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of retinal transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and more accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA content within a cell or tissue. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions.
