GSM8392714: GP muscle from KIC mouse 2 uninjected; Mus musculus; RNA-Seq
RNA was harvested using Rneasy mini plus kit (Qiagen). 1 ug of total RNA was used for the construction of sequencing libraries. Samples are run on the Agilent Tapestation 4200 to determine level of degradation thus ensuring only high quality RNA is used (RIN Score 8 or higher).  The Qubit fluorimeter is used to determine the concentration prior to staring library prep. One microgram of total DNAse treated RNA is then prepared with the TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep Kit from Illumina. Poly-A RNA is purified and fragmented before strand specific cDNA synthesis. cDNA are then a-tailed and indexed adapters are ligated. After adapter ligation, samples are PCR amplified and purified with AmpureXP beads, then validated again on the Agilent Tapestation 4200.
