Project description:To optimize the genome annotation, two tissue RNA libraries (i.e. liver and muscle) were constructed using the Illumina mRNA-Seq Prep Kit This study is a part of the Pseudopodoces humilis WGS project (BioProject ID: PRJNA179234) and was used for gene annotation improvement.
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:Measurement of changes in the mRNA transcript abundance of 1709 cDNAs in desiccated (5% RWC) and hydrated (100% RWC) Xerophyta humilis leaves and roots, and in mature seeds. 3105 cDNA clones (corresponding to 1709 unique cDNAs) were randomly selected from X. humilis cDNA libraries (Leaf Dehydration (LD), Leaf Rehydration (LR), Root Dehydration (RD) and Root Rehydration (RR)), amplified by PCR, and printed on each glass slide multiple times (ranging from 4 to 12X), such that each printed block contained a random unbiased mixture of cDNAs from the 4 different cDNA libraries. Total RNA extracted from each X. humilis leaf, root and seed sample was labelled with Cy3 and hybridized to the printed cDNA arrays. Data was recorded for three biological replicates for each of the samples being investigated.
