Project description:scRNA-seq was used in order to produce a cell type atlas of the larval and adult sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) brain. This resource enabled us to reveal the cell type composition and molecular organization of a representative of a lineage (i.e., the cyclostomes) that diverged from the rest of vertebrates around 500 million years ago, and lays the foundations for a better comprehension of vertebrate brain evolution
Project description:This project is designed to measure changes in gene expression during sea lamprey development RNA was extracted from sea lamprey embryos at 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 5 days post-fertilization and used to generate RNAseq data
Project description:Strand-specific RNA-seq libraries from different sea lamprey tissues (brain, heart, liver, kidney, ovary, testis) were produced in order to enhance the genome annotation for protein coding genes.
