RNA-Seq of control, RNPS1 knockdown and rescue in HeLa cells
We report the knockdown and rescue of RNPS1, a component of the ASAP and PSAP complexes and, hence, an auxiliary component of the exon junction complex. The studied conditions show an extensive change in alternative splicing and the cell's transcriptome.  For the knockdown, HeLa cells were transfected with siRNAs targeting RNPS1 or the Luciferase control. Total RNA was extracted with peqGOLD TriFast, underwent ribosomal depletion and strand-specific library preparation (TruSeq R Stranded Total RNA LT). Sequencing occurred in an Illumina HiSeq4000 sequencer with 2×75bp, producing roughly 35 million read-pair per sample.
