Project description:Three different stages of pig antral follicles have been studied in a granulosa-cell transcriptome analysis on nylon microarrays (1152 clones). The data have been generated from 7 RNA follicle pools and several technical replicates were made. Four Large, one Medium and two Small follicles pools were considered. For each follicle pool, 2 radioactive labellings were performed. Each membrane was exposed 16 hours (to avoid saturation of the signal of highly expressed genes) and 28 hours (to get some signal from lowly expressed genes). Each probe was hybridised on GPL3971 scag_scai Sus scrofa 1.2K mono array and on GPL3970 scag_scai Sus scrofa 4.6K triplicate array (except for GFS2172 which was labelled only once and hybridised onto 2 GPL3971 scag_scai Sus scrofa 1.2K mono array membranes), so that 4 spots are available for each gene (and 2 spots for GFS2172), for a given RNA and a given radioactive labelling. Keywords: granulosa-cell transcriptome analysis data consisted in (6 RNA x 2 labellings) + (GFS2172 RNA X 1 labelling)= 13 probes, 26 hybridisations, 52 images.

Project description:A CNV map in pigs could facilitate the identification of chromosomal regions that segregate for important economic and disease phenotypes. The goal of this study was to identify CNV regions (CNVRs) in pigs based on a custom array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH). We carried out a custom-made array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH) experiment in order to identify copy number variations (CNVs) in the pig genome analysing animals of diverse pig breeds (White Duroc, Yangxin, Erhualian, Tongcheng, Large White, Pietrain, Landrace and Chinese new pig line DIV ) using a tiling oligonucleotide array with ~720,000 probes designed on the pig genome (Sus scrofa genome version 9.0).
