Project description:Transcriptional profiling of IRF8-regulated genes in mouse CD11b-positive primary cells. CD11b-positive cells were isolated from spleens of age-matched wt and IRF8 KO mice, the compared for their gene expression profiles. The objective is to identify genes that are regulated by IRF8 in CD11b-positive primary cells. Two-condition experiments. Wt vs IRF8 KO cells. Biological replicates: 2 replicates for the comparison.

Project description:A transcriptome study in mouse hematopoietic stem cells was performed using a sensitive SAGE method, in an attempt to detect medium and low abundant transcripts expressed in these cells. Among a total of 31,380 unique transcript, 17,326 (55%) known genes were detected, 14,054 (45%) low-copy transcripts that have no matches to currently known genes. 3,899 (23%) were alternatively spliced transcripts of the known genes and 3,754 (22%) represent anti-sense transcripts from known genes.
