Project description:RNA-seq samples from 3 species across a differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells to neural progenitor cells were generated to study gene expression evolution. Briefly, previously generated urinary stem cell derived iPSCs of 3 human (Homo sapiens) individuals (3 clones), 1 gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) individual and fibroblast derived cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) iPSCs of 2 individuals (4 clones) (Geuder et al. 2021) were differentiated to neural progenitor cells via dual-SMAD inhibition as three-dimensional aggregation culture (Chambers et al. 2009; Ohnuki et al. 2014). Bulk RNA-seq libraries of iPSCs and NPCs were generated using prime-seq protocol (Janjic et al. 2022).

Project description:Homo sapiens fresh whole blood was infected with Candida albicans SC5314. RNA-pool of both species extracted at 0min (control), 15, 30, 60, 120, 240 min. Samples are rRNA depleted. Expression measurement of Homo sapiens genes.
Project description:ATAC-seq samples from 2 species and 2 cell types were generated to study cis-regulatory element evolution. Briefly, previously generated urinary stem cell derived iPS-cells (Homo sapiens) of 2 human individuals and fibroblast derived cynomolgus macaque iPSCs (Macaca fascicularis) of 2 individuals (Geuder et al. 2021) were differentiated to neural progenitor cells via dual-SMAD inhibition as three-dimensional aggregation culture (Chambers et al. 2009; Ohnuki et al. 2014). The NPC lines were cultured in NPC proliferation medium and passaged 2 - 4 times until they were dissociated and subjected to ATAC-seq together with the respective iPSC clones. ATAC-seq libraries were generated using the Omni-ATAC protocol (Corces et al. 2017) with minor modifications.
Project description:Homo sapiens fresh whole blood was infected with Candida glabrata. RNA-pool of both species extracted at 0min (control), 15, 30, 60, 120, 240 min. Samples are rRNA depleted. Measurement of Candida glabrata gene expression.
Project description:Homo sapiens fresh whole blood was infected with Candida tropicalis. RNA-pool of both species extracted at 0min (control), 15, 30, 60, 120, 240 min. Samples are rRNA depleted. Measurement of Candida tropicalis gene expression.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) study is to identify aberrations in the astrocyte transcriptional landscape caused by R270X mutation in MECP2. Methods: mRNA-seq analysis was performed on total RNA extracted from human embryonic stem cell (ESCs)-derived wild-type (WT) and MECP2-R270X mutant astrocytes. The R270X mutation was inserted into ESCs (line H1) via CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Samples were generated in triplicates, sequenced by Illumina NovaSeq 6000 Sequencing System. Raw reads were first trimmed for 10 bases at the 5’end to remove reads with biased nucleotide (ACGT) distribution. Trimmed reads were then aligned to the Homo sapiens genome (GRCh38p12, GENCODE, primary assembly), using STAR aligner. Differential gene expression (DEG) analyses on the read counts were performed using DESeq2. Genes with sum of read counts across all samples with less 10 were filtered out from analysis. Results: Our RNA-seq analysis showed that 1,621 genes were dysregulated in mutant astrocytes (fold-change >1.5 or <2/3; padj < 0.05, average reads count >10 in at least one genotype)
