Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to compare endothelial small RNA transcriptome to identify the target of OASL under basal or stimulated conditions by utilizing miRNA-seq. Methods: Endothelial miRNA profilies of siCTL or siOASL transfected HUVECs were generated by illumina sequencing method, in duplicate. After sequencing, the raw sequence reads are filtered based on quality. The adapter sequences are also trimmed off the raw sequence reads. rRNA removed reads are sequentially aligned to reference genome (GRCh38) and miRNA prediction is performed by miRDeep2. Results: We identified known miRNA in species (miRDeep2) in the HUVECs transfected with siCTL or siOASL. The expression profile of mature miRNA is used to analyze differentially expressed miRNA(DE miRNA). Conclusions: Our study represents the first analysis of endothelial miRNA profiles affected by OASL knockdown with biologic replicates.
Project description:A cDNA library was constructed by Novogene (CA, USA) using a Small RNA Sample Pre Kit, and Illumina sequencing was conducted according to company workflow, using 20 million reads. Raw data were filtered for quality as determined by reads with a quality score > 5, reads containing N < 10%, no 5' primer contaminants, and reads with a 3' primer and insert tag. The 3' primer sequence was trimmed and reads with a poly A/T/G/C were removed
Project description:RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) is a ubiquitous tool to profile genome-wide changes in gene expression. RNA-seq uses high-throughput sequencing technology to quantify the amount of RNA in a biological sample. With the increasing popularity of RNA-seq, many variations on the protocol have been proposed to extract unique and relevant information from biological samples. 3’ Tag-Seq (also called TagSeq, 3′ Tag-RNA-Seq, and Quant-Seq 3′ mRNA-Seq) is one RNA-seq variation, where the 3’ end of the transcript is selected and amplified to yield one copy of cDNA from each transcript in the biological sample.We present a simple, easy to use, and publicly available computational workflow to analyze 3’ Tag-Seq data. The workflow begins by trimming sequence adapters from raw FASTQ files. The trimmed sequence reads are checked for quality using FastQC, aligned to the reference genome, and read counts are obtained using STAR. Differential gene expression analysis is performed using DESeq2, based on differential analysis of gene count data. The outputs of this workflow are MA plots, tables of differentially expressed genes, and UpSet plots.This protocol is intended for users specifically interested in analyzing 3’ Tag-Seq data. As such, transcript length-based normalizations are not performed within the workflow. Future updates to this workflow could include custom analyses based on the gene counts table as well as data visualization enhancements.
Project description:This study utilized the HIT-ISOseq method for high-throughput sequencing of RNA isoforms across multiple lettuce samples, generating millions of long reads per PacBio Sequel II SMRT Cell. Analysis of six tissue types revealed tissue-specific gene expression and RNA isoforms, facilitating updates to the lettuce reference genome annotation with expanded functional annotations.
Project description:Whole exome sequencing of 5 HCLc tumor-germline pairs. Genomic DNA from HCLc tumor cells and T-cells for germline was used. Whole exome enrichment was performed with either Agilent SureSelect (50Mb, samples S3G/T, S5G/T, S9G/T) or Roche Nimblegen (44.1Mb, samples S4G/T and S6G/T). The resulting exome libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq platform with paired-end 100bp reads to an average depth of 120-134x. Bam files were generated using NovoalignMPI (v3.0) to align the raw fastq files to the reference genome sequence (hg19) and picard tools (v1.34) to flag duplicate reads (optical or pcr), unmapped reads, reads mapping to more than one location, and reads failing vendor QC.
Project description:Here, A549 cells expressing the ACE2 receptor were infected with SARS-CoV2, and pCHi-C was performed at 0 (mock), 8 and 24 hours post-infection. This repository provides the raw pCHi-C sequence reads and downstream processed CHiCAGO data (Rds files).
Project description:HDMYZ cells were treated with 2ug/ml ActD for 0, 4 and 12 hours. Small RNAs of 15-40 bases were gel-purified from 10 ug total RNA, and subjected to multiplex Illumina small RNA library preparation. Small RNA libraries were sequenced on a HiSeq2000 (Illumina) with 3 samples per lane. To quantify miRNA and isoform abundance, sequence reads were processed by the miRDeep2 package, with the following modifications. First, to remove adaptor sequence, we removed both the main adaptor sequence present in the sequencing reads, as well as the second most abundant adaptor variant. In addition, we did not restrict the size of small RNAs during adaptor removal. Second, we used miRBase v18 for mapping the reads. Third, for quantifying miRNA and isoform frequency, we limited reads to more or equal to 15 bases in length with zero mis-match during mapping. The number of reads that were mapped to known miRNAs was used to normalize read frequencies for each miRNA or each miRNA isoform. For quantification purposes, we only considered miRNAs or isoforms that had frequency >= 1x10e-6 in samples without ActD treatment, which correspond to ~21-30 reads in raw count. These miRNAs or isoforms were referred to as reliably quantifiable.To analyze mapping to the genome, we removed reads that mapped to miRNA precursors. The rest of the reads were then mapped to the genome with Bowtie.
