Project description:Gastrulation represents a pivotal point in mammalian development, when the basic body plan is established and cells are specified into one of the three germ layers. This is followed by rapid diversification into specific lineages and the appearance of the various cell types required to build each of the organs. The rich variety of cell types present at this stage has never been rigorously characterised in any mammalian organism, and thus insight into cell fate decisions and the underlying regulatory networks have been inaccessible. We have used droplet based single-cell RNA-sequencing to address this by profiling ~20000 cells from C57BL/6 E8.25 mouse embryos.
Project description:We have captured 100,000 single cells for single-cell RNAseq from whole mouse embryos during gastrulation and organogenesis, spanning days 6.5 to 8.5 of development, including embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. Cells were sampled every six hours, providing a continuous molecular characterisation of these processes. Cell libraries were prepared using the 10X Genomics Chromium platform.

The rich variety of cell types present at this stage has never been rigorously characterised in any mammalian organism, and thus insight into cell fate decisions and the underlying regulatory networks have been inaccessible. We have used droplet based single-cell RNA-sequencing to address this by profiling ~7000 cells from three E8.25 mouse embryos.
Project description:This dataset consists of whole brain samples from 10 B6 and 12 D2 mice, in order to assess the amount of strain-specific alternative splicing.

Project description:Embryonic fibroblast from C57BL/6 (B6) mice were reprogrammed to EiPS without exogenous DNA integration using an single episomal vector. The EiPS cells and B6 ES cells were then transplanted into B6 mice to form teratomas. We used microarrays to profile the gene expression differences between the teratomas formed by B6 ES cells and EiPS cells.
Project description:Single D11 cells were identified in 16-cell embryos of Xenopus laevis. Metabolites were extracted, and the extracts were analyzed using a custom-built capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization platform coupled to a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The resulting metadata was analyzed by Trace, a custom-design software, designed to extract molecular feautres from trace-sensitive metabolomics experiments. The results were validated against molecular features that were extracted by manual curation of the same raw mass spectrometer files.
