RNA-seq of mus musculus: ex vivo stimulated NK cells
RNA-seq was performed as described previously with slight modification (Hirahara et al., 2015). Total RNA was prepared from approximately 30-50,000 cells by using TRIzol following manufactures protocol (Life Technologies). Total RNA was subsequently processed to mRNA-seq library using TruSeq SR mRNA sample prep kit (FC-122-1001, Illumina). The purified libraries were multiplexed and captured on an Illumina flow cell for cluster generation. Libraries were sequenced for 50 single read cycles on HiSeq 2000 or 2500 following the manufacturer's protocols.
