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
24 samples: 24 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.
Paper
CRISPR screens in 3D tumourspheres identified miR-4787-3p as a transcriptional start site miRNA essential for breast tumour-initiating cell growthCommunications biology · 2024
Summary (written by the submitters)
Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous malignancy with distinct molecular subtypes and clinical characteristics. Tumor-initiating cells (TICs) constitute a small subset of cancer cells responsible for tumor initiation and progression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNA molecules, play a pivotal role in regulating gene expression and have been implicated in cancer development and progression.

In this study, we conducted genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens within 3D tumorspheres of two BC cell lines, MCF7 (ER+) and HCC1395 (TNBC). Our objective was to identify miRNAs that govern TIC viability, employing CRISPR/Cas9 pooled screens that targeted a total of 19,052 genes and 1,864 miRNAs. By suppressing relevant miRNAs following QuantSeq 3' mRNA sequencing we identify the genes regulated by those miRNAs

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 GSE243883_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 PRJNA1020408 and SRA study SRP462827. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
24 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 24 sample titles: 24 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.
