Project description:Sequencing libraries were generated from total RNA samples following the mRNAseq protocol for the generation of single end (16-36 hpf, 5 day larvae, adult head and adult tail) or paired end (24 hpf) libraries (Illumina). Single end reads of 36 nucleotides and paired end reads (2 x 76 nucleotides) were obtained with a GAIIx (Illumina). Gene expression at the different stages/tissu was assessed by cufflinks and HTseq.
Project description:Alignment of Genome Denmark Phase II dataset to GRCh38. The dataset consists of 150 Danish individuals (50 trios) sequenced to 80X. The BAM-file contains data from multiple libraries created from one individual with libraries of 180, 500, 800, 2000, 5000, 10000 and 20000 bp. The libraries were created using standard Illumina protocols for paired end reads (180-800bp libraries) and mate pair libraries (2kb-20kb).
Project description:Methods: Triplicate RNA samples from morphologically stage-matched embryos were sequenced to compare expression profiles over time. Strand-specific libraries were prepared using the TruSeq stranded total RNA-ribozero kit (Illumina) and 100-bp paired-end sequencing was performed to depth of 10 million reads per library on an Illumina HiSeq 2000. Methods: On average, 19 million 100 bp paired-end reads per library were generated. These were then adapter and quality trimmed using cutadapt and SolexaQA. Each sequencing data set was independently mapped to the zebrafish genome with a bowtie2 index generated from Danio_rerio.Zv9.70 (Ensembl) downloaded from Illumina’s iGenomes collection. Zebrafish genome danRer7was used to provide known transcript annotations from Ensembl using TopHat2 (version 2.0.9) with the following options: “tophat2 --GTF genes.gtf --library-type fr-firststrand -p 24 --mate-inner-dist -8 --mate-std-dev 6 zv9” (on average, 75.38% reads mapped uniquely to the genome). Transcriptomes were assembled with Cufflinks (version 2.2.0) using options: ‘cufflinks -p 32 --GTF genes.gtf’ and differential expression analysis between control and knockdown embryos was performed using Cuffdiff. A FDR corrected p-value of 0.05 was applied as the cut off to identify differentially regulated transcripts Results: We could show that MO assisted depletion of Rad21 and CTCF affected the transcriptional profiles of embryos in different ways.
Project description:The goal of this study was to conduct an in-depth analysis of the human placental transcriptome. RNA was extracted from 16 placental samples using TRIzol following the manufacturer’s protocol. All samples were spiked with 96 External RNA Controls Consortium (ERCC) ExFold RNA transcripts. Ribosomal RNAs were depleted from samples using Ribo-Zero Gold and sequencing libraries were prepared using Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Sample Preparation kits. Sequencing was performed on the Illumina Hi-Seq 2500 using a 100bp paired-end protocol. Sequence adapters were trimmed using AdapterRemoval with options --trimns, --minlength 20. Trimmed RNA-Seq reads were aligned to known UCSC hg19 genes and the hg19 genome using Bowtie 2 v2.1.0 and TopHat v2.0.9 with options --library-type=fr-firststrand --mate-inner-dist -20 --mate-std-dev 180. UCSC hg19 reference genome and transcriptome was obtained through Illumina iGenomes (https://support.illumina.com/sequencing/sequencing_software/igenome.html). Aligned RNA-Seq reads were summarised using the summarizeOverlaps algorithm with the UCSC known genes hg19 GTF file using the the options overlapMode=``Union'', ignoreStrand=FALSE, singleEnd=FALSE, fragments=TRUE to generate a table of unique read counts per gene for each sample. All samples were processed in the same way, with all sequencing libraries created in the same batch and sequenced together.
Project description:RNAseq analysis between cell types. RNA extracted using Qiagen mini total RNA isolation protocols (Qiagen, Germany). Samples were treated with DNase (Ambion), and sample integrity verified on the Agilent Bioanalyser with the RNA Nano chip. Illumina Tru-seq paired end strand specific sequencing (Illumina, USA) was carried out by on a NextSeq-550 sequencer (Edinburgh Clinical Research Facility, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK). 500ng of Total RNA underwent ribosomal RNA depletion (rRNA) prior to purification, fragmentation, random hexamer cDNA generation and purification with AMPure XP beads (Beckman-Coulter, USA). Multiple indexing adapters were ligated to ds cDNA with subsequent hybridisation onto flow cells, and DNA fragment enrichment by 15 cycle PCR for sequencing. Completed libraries were quantified by qPCR using the KAPA Illumina Library Quantification Kit (Illumina, USA) before multiplexing in two equimolar pools and running on two flow cells on the Illumina NextSeq 550. The resulting FastQ files were mapped to the reference genome (mm9) using the Tophat alignment tool (V1) on Illumina Basespace software and reads per kilobase per million (RPKM) scores calculated.
