Project description:The experiment was conducted at the Kołuda Wielka Experimental Station of the National Research Institute of Animal Production (Kołuda Wielka, Poland). All birds were kept in semi-intensive rearing system according to the oat-fattening technology. At 15.5 weeks of age, 8 geese were selected and divided into two groups (n=4) depending on final body weight. Group I (light) were geese with the flock average weight of 7,10 kg, group II (heavy) consisted of geese with above-average growth potential, which achieved a body weight of 7,95 kg during the same time. Up to 20 min after slaughter, the whole pituitary and hypothalamus were collected and stabilized in RNAlater solution to RNA isolation purpose.
Project description:Whole-genome resequencing of eight transcription factor mutants and one wild-type, in order to verify the T-DNA insertion site and its uniqueness.
Project description:We sought to illustrate molecular subtypes associated with clinical prognosis and to identify genetic aberrations for potential targeted therapeutics through comprehensive whole-genome analysis of 131 Chinese gastric cancer tissue specimens using whole-genome array CGH.
Project description:Purpose: To gain molecular insights of HBV integration that may contribute to HCC tumorigenesis, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing and whole genome copy number profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples from 50 Chinese patients. Conclusions: This is the first report on the molecular basis of the MLL4 integration driving MLL4 over-expression. HBV-MLL4 integration occurred frequently in Chinese HCC patients, representing a unique molecular segment for HCC with HBV infection.
Project description:We sequenced and analyzed the genome of a highly inbred miniature Chinese pig strain, the Banna Minipig Inbred Line (BMI). we conducted whole genome screening using next generation sequencing (NGS) technology and performed SNP calling using Sus Scrofa genome assembly Sscrofa11.1.
Project description:Copy Number Variations (CNVs) were identified performing Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) on 225 patients after whole-genome amplification, using Agilent SurePrint G3 4x180K microarrays. CNVs were further integrated with gene expression (Affymetrix U133+2 arrays) and mutations (targeted DNA resequencing). Complete description of the methods, array quality checks and called segments are available as supplemental material in the corresponding publication.
