Differential Gene expression in the mouse mammary tumors of PyMT-Malat1 wild-type (WT), PyMT-Malat1 knockout (KO) and PyMT-Malat1 knockout with Malat1 transgene expression (TG)

Previously, lncRNA Malat1 knockout mice were generated by insertional inactivation. By crossing this line to MMTV-PyMT mammary tumor mouse model, we produced PyMT;Malat1 wild-type (WT) and PyMT;Malat1 knockout (KO). Furthermore, we generated Malat1 transgenic mice by targeting ROSA26 locus and bred them to PyMT;Malat1 knockout mice to produce Malat1-rescued PyMT;Malat1 knockout;Malat1 transgenic animals (TG). Using mammary tumors from the three groups of animals, we performed RNA-Seq analysis to identify differentially up-regulated genes in KO tumors to find novel target genes of YAP-TEAD pathway. mRNA profiles of biological duplicate mammary tumors from PyMT;Malat1 wild-type (WT), PyMT;Malat1 knockout (KO) and PyMT;Malat1 knockout;Malat1 transgenic animals (TG) using RNA-Seq
