Vaceletia sp. TG10 isolate:TG10 Raw sequence reads

Sponges are often host to a large and diverse microbial community. We have sequenced the holo-transcriptome of a hypercalcified demosponge and use this resource to characterise some of the molecular components that the sponge host is likely to use to interact with its endobiotic microbial community. A TrueSeq RNA Sample Kit (Illumina, Cat. N°RS-122-2002) was used to generate an mRNA library using 500 ng of total RNA. Sequencing was conducted on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform to generate 100 bp paired-end reads. Quality filtering resulted in 34,592,975 paired end reads that were assembled into 91,443 contigs with an average length of 933 bp and an N50 value of 1,307 bp.
