Project description:High-throughput sequencing of Drosophila pseudoobscura and Drosophila simulans small RNAs. ~18-26nt RNAs were isolated from total RNA using PAGE, ligation to adapters requires 5' monophosphate and 3' OH.
Project description:High-throughput sequencing of Drosophila pseudoobscura and Drosophila simulans small RNAs. ~18-26nt RNAs were isolated from total RNA using PAGE, ligation to adapters requires 5' monophosphate and 3' OH. Small RNAs were cloned from Drosophila pseudoobscura (heads and pooled 0-12 and 12-24 hour embryos) and Drosophila simulans (pooled 0-12 and 12-24 hour embryos). Sequencing was performed using the Illumina 1G platform. Following removal of 3' linker sequences, the clipped sequences longer than 18 nt were kept.
