Project description:<p>The purpose of this study was to obtain tissue specimens derived from patients with melanoma to generate research tools to advance our understanding of the genetics, pathogenesis, and therapeutics of melanoma. Briefly, tissue was obtained from metastatic lesions and used to generate clonal primary cell lines from melanoma cells and fibroblasts from the tumor microenvironment. RNA was extracted from low passage cell lines using Trizol reagent. cDNA libraries were prepared using the TruSeq mRNA sample preparation kit, v2 (Illumina) and sequenced on the HiSeq 2000 platform (Illumina). The submitted files are bam files that contain both unaligned and aligned reads (human genome, build hg19). </p>
Project description:This experiment was conducted to generate targeted resequencing data covering a region associated with osteosarcoma in greyhounds. 8 greyhounds diagnosed with osteosarcoma and 7 greyhounds without tumors were sequenced. DNA from the 15 dogs was used to prepare libraries and hybrid capture performed to enrich the region of interest prior to paired-end sequencing using Illumina Genome Analyzer II. The reads were aligned to the dog-genome CanFam2.0 using bwa and pre-processed using Picard and GATK. Variant discovery was performed using GATK. The resulting list of variants were used in the study to finemap the associated region and look for causal variants. We submit the preprocessed BAM-files that still have all reads although some reads are flagged. We also submit the resulting vcf-file with called and filtered variants in all individuals.
Project description:Purpose:The goal of this study was to evalute gene expression patterns of equine chorioallantoic membrane during different stages of the pregnancy Method: mRNA profile of equine chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) from 45days, 4months, 6months and 10months (4 samples for each time points) generated by RNA-sequencing,using a Illumina HiSeq 4000 ( HiSeq 4000 sequencing kit version 1). The sequence reads were trimmed for adapters and quality using TrimGalore Version 0.4.4,and then mapped to EquCab2.0 using STAR-2.5.2b. Final quantification at the gen level was performed by analyzing the BAM files in cufflinks using the Equus_caballus_ENSEMBL_88 gtf file as Guide.
