title: GSM1564299: R2D_050_TotalRNA; Homo sapiens; RNA-Seq
library_construction_protocol: Total RNA was extracted from between half a million and million cells using Total RNA Purification Kit (Norgen Biotek) with on-column DNase treatment according to the kit instructions. RNA concentration for each pair of samples to be mixed was equalised to ~100 ng/μl using Qubit RNA BR Assay Kit (Life Technologies). Replicates were pooled in known proportions to obtain mixtures ranging from pure NCI-H1975 (100:0) to pure HCC827 (0:100) and intermediate mixtures ranging from 75:25 to 50:50 to 25:75  NCI-H1975:HCC827. All mixtured corresponding to the second replicate were split into two equal aliquots. One aliquot was left intact (we refer to this as the 'good' replicate), while the second aliquot was degraded to produce known outlier samples by incubation at 37 degrees C for 7 days in a thermal cycler with a heated lid. 10 μl from each replicated mixture (both good and degraded) were used for Next Generation Sequencing library preparation using two kits: Illumina TruSeq Total Stranded RNA with Ribozero (TotalRNA) and Illumina TruSeq RNA v2 (mRNA) according to manufacturer's instructions. Completed libraries were sequenced on HiSeq 2500 with TruSeq SBS Kit v4- HS reagents (Illumina) as 100 bp single-end reads at the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF), Melbourne. Approximately 30 million 100 bp single-end reads were obtained for each sample. Reads were aligned to the human reference genome hg19 and mapped to known genomic features at the gene level using the Rsubread package (version 1.16.1) (Liao et al. 2013). Single reads were then summarized into gene-level counts using FeatureCounts (Liao et al. 2014).
