Project description:Single-cell mRNA sequencing was overlaid with single-cell ATAC sequencing of the mouse E9.5 cranial region for both wildtype and miR-302 knockout embryos, an established example of a neural tube closure defect. The goals of this study were to compare changes in gene expression and chromatin accessibility upon loss of a stem cell miRNA and neural tube closure defect.
Project description:Genome-wide profiling of transcription factors based on massive parallel sequencing of immunoprecipitated chromatin (ChIP-seq) requires nanogram amounts of DNA. Here we describe a high-fidelity, single-tube linear DNA amplification method (LinDA) for ChIP-seq and reChIP-seq with picogram DNA amounts obtained from a few thousand cells. This amplification technology will facilitate global analyses of transcription-factor binding and chromatin with very small cell populations, such as stem or cancer-initiating cells. In total 5 samples were generated from the F9 teratocarcinoma cell system: mRXRa-RARg-LinDA;mRXRa_100xfold-diluted_LinDA; mRXRa(1) and two others previously described in GSE30538 (mRXRa(2): !Series_sample_id=GSM757796; mRARg : !Series_sample_id=GSM757803). In addition, 14 samples were generated from the H3396 breast cancer cell system. Those samples containing the label "LinDA" has been amplified following the Linear DNA amplification method developed by Pattabhiraman et al. ((2011), Nature Methods 8, 565-67) prior library preparation for Solexa sequencing.

Project description:single-cell sequencing of the mouse cranial region at E8.25 (the start of neural tube closure, at E9.5 (the end of neural tube closure, and of a miR-302 knockout embryo at E9.5 (example of neural tube closure defrect).
