Description
This dataset contains whole-genome RNA sequencing results from rat embryonic hippocampal neuronal cultures and serves as the basis for characterization of CRISPR/dCas9 gene activation in neuronal systems. Overall design: This experiment contains 9 biological samples, each of which underwent directional, paired-end PolyA+ RNA-seq on an Illumina Next-seq 500. Samples were treated with Lacz sgRNA (LZ2, LZ4, & LZ5), Bdnf-I sgRNA (B16, B17, B18), or Bdnf-IV sgRNA (BIV11, BIV14, BIV15), in addition to a dCas9-VPR fusion. Datasets were obtained using RNA-seq from PolyA+ fractions fractions of RNA. Each sample has multiple files, corresponding to different sequencing lanes (e.g., L001, L002, etc) or different reads (e.g., R1, R2).
