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
8 samples: 8 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groupsGroups 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)
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an immunodeficiency disorder caused by the dysfunction of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP). Although the effect of WASP on actin -polymerization is well studied, less is known about its role in other intracellular systems. Here we show that WASP interacts with the nucleolus in macrophages. Using induced pluripotent stem cells and the CRISPR-Cas system, we show that knocking out WASP results in reduced nucleolar size, loss of roundness, decreased sub-nucleolar structure percentage, and impaired ribosomal RNA transcription.

Furthermore, we identified interactions between WASP and two nucleolar proteins, including nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) and fibrillarin (FBL). Previous research has demonstrated that a loss of NPM1 results in heightened cytokine expression following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. We found that WASP-deficient cells presented less NPM1 and more cytokine expression in response to LPS stimulation, providing new insights on the role of the nucleolus in immune functions. Together, our study provides new information on WASP in nucleolar function and its control of inflammatory cytokine expression in response to inflammatory stimuli.

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 GSE237489_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 PRJNA995504 and SRA study SRP449835. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
8 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 8 sample titles: 8 distinct titles with little repetition. 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.
