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

16 samples: 4 × DGRC8 KO, not paused, vs 4 × DGRC8 KO, paused, vs 4 × WT, not paused, vs 4 × WT, paused,Groups 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)
Dormancy is a key feature of stem cell function in adult tissues as well as embryonic cells in the context of diapause. The establishment of dormancy is an active process that involves extensive transcriptional, epigenetic, and metabolic rewiring. How these processes are coordinated to successfully transition cells to the resting dormant state is not known.

Here we show that microRNA activity, which is normally dispensable for pre-implantation development, is essential for the adaptation of early mouse embryos to the dormant state of diapause. In particular, the pluripotent epiblast depends on miRNA activity, the absence of which results in loss of pluripotency and embryo collapse. Through small RNA profiling of individual embryos and computational integration of miRNA targets, we identified the miRNA-protein network of diapause. Individual miRNA function contributes to combinatorial regulation by the network and the perturbation of the network reduces embryo survival. Without miRNAs, nuclear and cytoplasmic bodies show aberrant expression. We identified the nutrient-sensitive transcription factor TFE3 as an upstream regulator of miRNA biogenesis, linking mTOR activity to miRNA induction. Our results reveal that miRNAs are critical for the transcriptional and structural rewiring of early embryos to establish dormancy.

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 GSE244879_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 PRJNA1025267 and SRA study SRP465030. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design

Supports a between-group comparison across 16 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 16 sample titles; they account for 16 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.
