Global gene expression profile of cortices from FUS and TDP mutant and control mouse
In this study, global transcriptome profiling was performed for FUS and TDP mutant (as model of ALS) and control samples from mouse cortices, More than 20 million high-quality reads were obtained from each sample using Illumina platform. A consensus reference-guided assembly was generated for the transcriptome data from all samples and gene expression was analysed. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from mutant and control samples and cDNA libraries were prepared. Sequencing was performed on Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform to generate 51 bp single-end reads. Pre-processing was performed to remove adapters and low-quality reads. Filtered high-quality reads were mapped on the mouse genome (mm10) using STAR aligner. To analyze gene expression, Htseq-count were used to quantify genes expression and EdgeR were used for differential expression.
