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
35 samples: 35 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)
LMX1B codes for a transcription factor of the LIM-homeodomain family, mutations in this gene cause the autosomal-dominant hereditary disease nail-patella syndrome. We have generated two knock-in mouse lines which carry missense mutations in the LIM domains of LMX1B and thus mimic the situation in patients. Surprisingly, both mouse lines only developed a phenotype in the recessive state.

This is due to the misfolding of the respective LIM domains, in which a zinc-chelating amino acid was exchanged by an alternative amino acid, and the subsequent ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation of mutant LMX1B. The proteasomal inhibitors bortezomib and MG132 stabilized the mutant proteins in vitro. A therapeutic study demonstrated that bortezomib markedly reduced podocyte damage and alleviated proteinuria in adult mice with a floxed and a knock-in Lmx1b allele. RNA sequencing of isolated podocytes from those mice revealed a number of genes which were up- or down-regulated in both knock-in mouse lines but also led to the identification to genes whose regulation specifically depended on the LIM-B domain. Our data provide proof of principle for a therapeutic strategy in patients with nail-patella syndrome suffering from missense mutations in the LIM domains of LMX1B

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 GSE288803_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 PRJNA1219510 and SRA study SRP561711. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
35 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 35 sample titles: 35 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.
