Project description:The purpose of this bulk RNA-seq experiment is to identify candidate genes that can mark proliferating isthmus progenitors in the mouse stomach corpus epithelium. The cycling isthmus progenitors were isolated based on mVenus expression in FUCCI mouse and used for bulk RNA-seq data generation. The corpus epithelium was stained with E-cadherin and E-cadherin+ cells were also sorted and used for the control.
Project description:Resequening ileum and colon epithelium with deeper reads to evaluate consequence of Satb2 gene loss in the colonic epithelium. The same library construction method was used to compare with Bulk RNA-seq data from In Vitro cultured mouse organoids.
Project description:Epithelial cells and differentiated fiber cells represent distinct compartments in the ocular lens. While previous studies have revealed proteins that are preferentially expressed in epithelial vs. fiber cells, a comprehensive proteomics library comparing the molecular composition of epithelial vs. fiber cells is essential for understanding lens formation, function, disease and regenerative potential, and for efficient differentiation of pluripotent stem cells for modeling of lens development and pathology in vitro. To compare protein composition between the lens epithelium and fibers, we employed tandem mass spectrometry (2DLC/ MS) analysis of micro-dissected mouse P0.5 lenses. Functional classifications of the top 525 identified proteins into gene ontology categories by molecular process and subcellular localization, were adapted for lens. Expression levels of both epithelial and fiber proteomes were compared with their temporal and spatial mRNA levels using E14.5, E16.5, E18.5, and P0.5 RNA-Seq data sets. During this developmental time window, multiple complex biosynthetic and catabolic processes generate the molecular and structural foundation for lens transparency. As expected, crystallins showed a high correlation between their mRNA and protein levels. Comprehensive data analysis confirmed and/or predicted roles for transcription factors (TFs), RNA-binding proteins, translational apparatus including ribosomal heterogeneity and initiation factors, microtubules, cytoskeletal and membrane proteins in lens formation and maturation. Our data highlighted many proteins with unknown function in the lens that were preferentially enriched in epithelium or fibers, setting the stage for future studies to further dissect the roles of these proteins in fiber cell differentiation vs. epithelial cell maintenance. In conclusion, the present proteomic datasets established reference mouse lens epithelium and fiber cell proteomes, provided quantitative analyses of protein and RNA-Seq data, and probed the major proteome remodeling required to form the mature lens fiber cells.
Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) comprise a diverse class of transcripts that can regulate molecular and cellular processes in brain development and diseasee. LncRNAs exhibit cell type- and tissue-specific expression, but little is known about the expression and function of lncRNAs in the developing human brain. Here, we deeply profiled lncRNAs from polyadenylated and total RNA obtained from human neocortex at different stages of development and integrated this resource to analyze the transcriptomes of single cells. While lncRNAs were generally detected at low levels in whole tissues, single cell transcriptomics revealed that many lncRNAs are abundantly expressed in individual cells and are cell type-specific. Furthermore, we used CRISRPi to show that LOC646329, a lncRNA enriched in radial glia but detected at low abundance in tissues, regulates cell proliferation. The discrete and abundant expression of lncRNAs among individual cells has important implications for both their biological function and utility for distinguishing neural cell types. 16 Bulk Tissue Samples from GW13-23; 226 Single Cells from GW19.5-23.5 ------------------ bulk_tpm.polya.txt: bulk RNA-seq expression; using polyA full reference scell_ncounts.genes.thresh.txt: single cell RNA-seq expression; using polyA stringent reference; includes 50 GW16, GW21, GW21p3 cells previously analyzed (Pollen et. al. 2014) polya_RNA_stringent_ref.gtf: bulk RNA-seq polyA stringent transcriptome reference polya_RNA_full_ref.gtf: bulk RNA-seq polyA full transcriptome reference total_RNA_stringent_ref.gtf: bulk RNA-seq total stringent transcriptome reference total_RNA_full_ref.gtf: bulk RNA-seq total full transcriptome reference GW13_1_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW13_1_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW13_1_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW13_1_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW14.5_1_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW14.5_1_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW14.5_1_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW14.5_1_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_1_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_1_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_1_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_1_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_2_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_2_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_2_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW16_2_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_1_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_1_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_1_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_1_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_2_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_2_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_2_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW21_2_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_1_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_1_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_1_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_1_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_2_polya_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_2_polya_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_2_total_minus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal GW23_2_total_plus.bw: strand-specific bulk RNA-seq alignment signal
