Transcription factors Bcl11a and Bcl11b are Required for the production and differentiation of cortical projection neurons
Purpose:To assess changes in gene expression profiles of single cell from the wild type littermate controls cortices in E13.5, E15.5 and P0, and conditional knockout Bcl11a (and Bcl11b) at cortical projection neurons in the mouse cortices of the same ages. Methods: E13.5, E15.5 and P0 control and mutant cortices were carefully dissected under a clean environment. Then total RNA was isolated using an RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN) according to the manufacturer's protocol, quantified using NanoDrop ND-2000, and checked for RNA integrity using Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer. RNA-seq libraries were prepared according to the Illumina TruSeq protocol. Results: An average of 15 million reads per sample were obtained. Overall design: RNA-seq: three mice cortical samples in each genotype at each age, totally three ages each with three different genotypes
