What it is
RNA-seq (gene expression)Gene activity measured by sequencing. The summary does not mention single-cell work, so this is most likely bulk: one average per sample, the usual starting point for comparing groups.

Data you can get
A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.
Summary (written by the submitters)
Large-scale analyses have revealed that 60-90% of the mammalian genome is transcriptionally active. Because <2% of sequences have protein-coding potential, why so much cellular energy is expended on RNA synthesis is a major question in the post-genomic era. The hypothesis that RNA may serve as recruiting platforms for chromatin modifiers has gained ground with discoveries linking long ncRNAs, such as RepA, Xist, and Tsix, to locus-specific targeting of Polycomb proteins to the X-chromosome.

Long ncRNAs have also been associated with Polycomb proteins at human HOX loci. Here, we ask if RNA targeting may be a general feature of regulation for mouse Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). We develop a method to capture the 'PRC2 transcriptome' by combining RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) with deep sequencing (seq). RIP-seq of mouse embryonic stem cells identifies >3000 RNAs in the PRC2 transcriptome. Approximately 14% of RNAs originate from previously described PRC2-binding sites and many are promoter-associated. The transcriptome includes a large number of unannotated noncoding and antisense RNAs, with the X-chromosome exhibiting a high density of PRC2 RNAs. Imprinted genes and other disease genes, including those involved in cancer, are also well-represented. Functional validation of select candidates confirms RNA-PRC2 interactions in vivo and recruitment of Polycomb proteins in cis. Thus, RNA cofactors may be one general mechanism, among others, for targeting mammalian PRC2. Given PRC2's essential roles during stem cell renewal, development, and cancer, the PRC2 transcriptome described herein will provide a valuable resource for regenerative medicine and cancer biology.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE17064_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA119843 and SRA study SRP002224. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
