RNA-seq in wild type and dCAP-D3 mutant tissues. RNA-seq in wild type and dCAP-D3 mutant tissues

The goal of this experiment was to identify transcripts that are differentially expressed in dCAP-D3 mutant tissues. Overall design: RNA was isolated from wing discs and salivary glands of wild type (w1118) or dCap-D3 homozygous mutant (dCap-D3c07081/c07081) larvae. Directional (wing disc) or nondirectional (salivary gland) cDNA libraries (50 bp, paired end) were made at the University of Chicago Genomics Core and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq2500, according to standard protocols.
