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
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
18 samples: 6 conditions, mostly in triplicateGroups 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)
A-type lamins form a filamentous meshwork beneath the nuclear membrane that anchors large heterochromatic chromatin domains at the nuclear envelope. They also exist as a more dynamic, non-filamentous pool in the nuclear interior, where they interact with gene-rich euchromatin. Lamin-associated polypeptide 2 alpha (LAP2alpha) binds to and maintains the nucleoplasmic lamin pool, but the functional significance of this interaction is poorly understood.

Here we investigate the genome-wide chromatin association of A-type lamins during myogenic differentiation in the presence and absence of LAP2alpha. We find that A-type lamins are significantly reorganized on chromatin upon depletion of LAP2alpha, spreading towards active chromatin and accumulating at regions of active H3K27ac and H3K4me3 histone marks close to the genes whose expression is impaired in the absence of LAP2alpha. This reorganization of A-type lamins on chromatin is accompanied by depletion of the active chromatin mark H3K27ac and a significant delay of myogenic differentiation. Thus, the interplay of lamins and LAP2alpha is crucial for proper positioning of intranuclear lamins on chromatin to allow normal myogenic differentiation.

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 GSE247773_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 PRJNA1040297 and SRA study SRP471890. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
