Regulation of the ESC transcriptome by nuclear long non-coding RNAs. Regulation of the ESC transcriptome by nuclear long non-coding RNAs

We performed poly(A)+ RNA sequencing (Illumina GAIIx) from nuclear and whole cell RNA fractions of mouse AB2.2 embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and neural progenitors (NPCs) differentiated from ESCs. We further transfected AB2.2 ESCs with control antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), or 2 independent ASOs each targeting either PAT-14 lncRNA or Firre lncRNA for 24 hours, in 4 biological replicates each and performed poly(A)+ RNA sequencing (Illumina HiSeq 2000).
