Project description:We utilized RNA-Seq on rat Schwann (S16) cells to determine global gene expression. This information was generated as part of a larger effort to characterize cis-regulatory elements and global gene expression within Schwann cells. To achieve this, we generated RPKM values across two independent biological replicates. This dataset was also used to predict cis-regulatory element function on genes following CRISPR knockout studies.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
Project description:Analysis of LBNF1 rat testes from controls, containing both somatic and all germ cell types and from irradiated rats in which all cells germ cells except type A spermatgogonia are eliminated. Results provide insight into distinguishing germ and somatic cell genes and identification of somatic cell genes that are upregulated after irradiation.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis. 2 biological replicates of RRRC#464 DA-EC8/Rrrc cell line were sequenced with 50bp paired end reads using Illumina Hi-Seq 2000
