Abstract:
RNA-Seq was performed on Nematostella Embryos at 5 timepoints during early development: 0hrs, 6hrs, 12hrs, 18hrs, 24hrs after fertilization. Embryos were harvested, lysed and mRNAs were selected using Dynabeads. Directional sequencing libraries were constructed using the ScriptSeq kit from Epicentre. A control RNA set from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) were spiked-into the library preparation. Libraries were sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq 1000, version 3 chemistry, 100bp paired-end reads and produced over 200million reads. The reads were quality controlled filtered and assembled using the Trinity Assembler. This database contains the raw read files and the assembled Transcriptome.
