MPRA of two human and one cynomologous NPC line to assay activity of DNAse1 hypersensitive sites in the proximity of the Trnp1 gene. MPRA of two human and one cynomologous NPC line to assay activity of DNAse1 hypersensitive sites in the proximity of the Trnp1 gene

Homo sapiens and Macaca fascicularis neural progenitor cell lines were transduced with a lentiviral MPRA (Massively Parallel Reporter Assay) library. MPRA barcode sequencing and RNA-seq was performed on the extracted RNA. MPRA data was used to compare activity of regulatory sequences across 75 mammalian species with a focus on primates and correlate these activities with the Phenotype of gyrencephaly.
