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.
Organism
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
102 samples: 47 conditions, mostly in duplicateGroups are read from the sample names, not from the paper. Check the list below.
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)
Amplification-mediated oncogene overexpression is a critical and widespread driver event in cancer, yet our understanding of how amplification and dosage mediate oncogene regulation is limited. Here, we find that the most significant focal amplification event in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) targets a lineage “super-enhancer” near the NKX2-1 lineage transcription factor.
Read the full summary ↓
The NKX2-1 super-enhancer is targeted by focal and co-amplification with NKX2-1 and controls NKX2-1 expression and regulation. We find that NKX2-1 directly controls enhancer accessibility to drive a lineage-addicted state in LUAD. We precisely map the effects of NKX2-1 dosage modulation upon both overexpression and knockdown and identify both linear and non-linear regulation by NKX2-1 dosage. We find that NKX2-1 is a widespread dependency in LUAD cell lines and that NKX2-1 confers persistence to EGFR inhibitors. Our data suggest a defining role for dosage in the oncogenic regulation of amplified NKX2-1 and that amplified NKX2-1 lineage addiction defines LUAD tumors.

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 GSE229541_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 PRJNA954856 and SRA study SRP432310. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 100 samples.

How we read this: 47 replicated groups read from 102 sample titles; they account for 100 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
