Project description:This project is designed to measure changes in gene expression during sea lamprey development RNA was extracted from sea lamprey embryos at 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 5 days post-fertilization and used to generate RNAseq data
Project description:Strand-specific RNA-seq libraries from different sea lamprey tissues (brain, heart, liver, kidney, ovary, testis) were produced in order to enhance the genome annotation for protein coding genes.
Project description:This project is designed to measure changes in gene expression during sea lamprey development and in the adult germline RNA was extracted in biological triplicate from sea lamprey embryos at 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 5 days post-fertilization and in technical replicates from adult testes using trizol extraction. RNA was analyzed on the Nanostring nCounter gene expression assay to measure changes in gene expression across developmental time points and in adult testes
Project description:scRNA-seq was used in order to produce a cell type atlas of the larval and adult sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) brain. This resource enabled us to reveal the cell type composition and molecular organization of a representative of a lineage (i.e., the cyclostomes) that diverged from the rest of vertebrates around 500 million years ago, and lays the foundations for a better comprehension of vertebrate brain evolution
