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
63 samples: 12 conditions, mostly with about 5 replicates eachGroups 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)
NMDA (N-methyl-d-aspartate) receptor dysfunction is widely implicated in pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental condition with a strong genetic basis. Here we investigated heterozygous mouse mutants carrying the ASD-linked C456Y mutation of Grin2b, a high-confidence ASD risk gene encoding the GluN2B subunit of the NMDA receptors.
Read the full summary ↓
Comprehensive transcriptomic analyses across multiple brain regions and postnatal ages revealed large-scale gene expression changes, particularly in pathways related to oxidative phosphorylation and ribosome/translation, suggesting brain-wide alteration of energy metabolism and protein synthesis in Grin2b+/C456Y mice. Starting from transcriptomic evidence, we additionally discovered widespread splicing abnormalities, and impaired hippocampal neurogenesis in Grin2b mutants. Interestingly, the underlying genes and the spatial and temporal patterns of transcriptomic changes in Grin2b+/C456Y mice differed substantially from those observed in mutant mice lacking Grin2a, which encodes the GluN2A subunit of the NMDA receptor but is a schizophrenia risk gene. These findings underscore the distinct role of Grin2b in brain development and function and reveal potential mechanisms by which Grin2b loss of function may lead to neurodevelopmental disorders.

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 GSE312325_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 PRJNA1373027 and SRA study SRP650985. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 63 samples.

How we read this: 12 replicated groups read from 63 sample titles; they account for 63 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.
