Project description:Right ventricular small RNA profiles from 22 patients with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and small RNA-seq profiles from the left and right ventricle (LV and RV, respectively) of 4 healthy unaffected individuals (NH) were generated. The total RNA was isolated from the 30 human heart samples using TRIzol. Small RNAs were isolated from total RNA and prepared for microRNA sequencing using Illumina Kit FG-102-1009 according to the manufacturer's protocol (Preparing Samples for Analysis of Small RNA Illumina 2007). The sequencing libraries were generated using a non-strand-specific library construction method. The purified DNA fragments were used directly for cluster generation, and 36 cycles of single-end read sequencing were performed using the Illumina Genome Analyzer. Sequencing reads were extracted from the image files using the open source Firecrest and Bustard applications (Illumina Genome Analyzer pipeline 1.3.2).
