Project description:We used PacBio data to identify more reliable transcripts from hESC, based on which we can estimate gene/transcript abundance better from Illumina data. PacBio long reads and Illumina short reads were generated from the same hESC cell line H1. PacBio reads were error-corrected by Illumina reads to identify transcripts. rSeq is used to estimate gene/transcript abundance of the identified transcriptome.

Project description:Long-read sequencing technologies such as Iso-Seq (PacBio Inc.) generate highly accurate sequences of full-length mRNA transcript isoforms. Long-read transcriptomics may be especially useful in the context of lymphocyte functional plasticity as it relates to human health and disease. However, no long-read isoform-aware reference transcriptomes of human circulating lymphocytes seem to be publicly available despite being valuable as benchmarks in a variety of transcriptomic studies. To begin to fill this gap, we purified four lymphocyte subsets (CD4 T, CD8 T, NK, and Pan B cells) from the peripheral blood of a healthy male donor and obtained high-quality RNA (RIN>8) for PacBio Iso-Seq analysis and parallel RNA-Seq analysis.
