Next generation sequencing to determine polyadenylation events in DICER hypomorph cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) is a form of transcriptional regulation via shifts in how frequently multiple polyadenylation (polyA) sites within genes are used across biological conditions. APA can result in transcripts with varying length and information content, and has been linked to gene regulation in both cancer and development. We performed a genome-wide quantification of polyA site usage using a next generation sequencing technique. By priming the polyA-tails of an RNA library, we mapped cleavage sites and abundances with base-pair resolution across the genomes of the DICER(ex5) hypomorph cells. The DICER cell line is derived from the parental HCT116 colon cancer cell line, but has an ablation of DICER function. This polyA sequencing data may be used to interrogate any cross-talk between DICER function and APA.
