Transcriptome profiling of wildtype and E2A knockout embryonic stem cells

ABSTRACT: Background: E2A, encoded by the TCF3 gene locus, belongs to the E protein transcription factor family, which also includes HEB (TCF12) and E2-2 (TCF4), has been suggested to play an important role in leukemogenesis. However, far less is known about the function of E2A in cell-fate regulation of hESCs. Therefore, further understanding of E2A in self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem cells may be influenced. Methods: The mRNA profiles of wildtype and E2A knockout embryonic stem cells were generated by RNA-seq technique, in triplicate for each group, using IIIumina Hiseq 2500. Results: A comprehensive human transcriptome map of wild type and E2A knockout embryonic stem cells was provided. Function enrichment, network characteristics and disease association of the differentially expressed genes were analyzed. Conclusion: The dataset could serve as a baseline resource for investigating the potential effects and mechanism of E2A in embryonic stem cells.
