title: Spermatid RNA
design: RNA: Total RNA was harvested using the RNAeasy mini kit (Qiagen) as per manufacturer's guidelines. All sequencing performed by Exeter University Sequencing service. Standard Illumina protocols were performed for samples being sequenced on a Illumina HiSeq 2000 machine running in paired-end mode. RNA was run through an oligo dT column prior to cDNA generation to filter for mRNA transcripts only
