title: GSM5195636: AS WT; Homo sapiens; RNA-Seq
library_construction_protocol: Total cellular RNA was extracted from AS WT and AS STRAP KO cells using the RNAeasy kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's protocol. UAB Genomics Core performed sample quality control, library preparation, and RNA sequencing. The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer was used to assess the total RNA quality, which was followed by two rounds of poly A+ selection and conversion to cDNA The NEBNext® Ultra™ Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina® library generation kit (New England Biolabs) was used per the manufacturer's instructions. qPCR in a Roche LightCycler 480 with the Kapa Biosystems kit (Kapa Biosystems, Woburn, MA) was used for library quantitation. The Illumina NextSeq500 was used to perform the sequencing using the latest versions of the sequencing reagents and flow cells with single-end 75 bp reads.
