RNA-seq of mouse myeloma cell line SP 2/0 overexpressed with Gm614 against vector control

We found that a novel gene Gm614 mRNA significantly changed in plasma cells. Because of plasmablast-like, Mus musculus myeloma SP 2/0 cell line was selected to test the effect of Gm614 overexpression on plasmablast/plasma cells. Gm614 cDNA (General Biosystems, Anhui, China) was cloned into lentiviral vector LV201 (Fugene Corp., Guangzhou, China) to generate Gm614 protein. Gm614-expressing LV201 was then transfected into SP 2/0 cells, and stable transfectants were identified by drug selection (Puromycin, Sigma, 10 µg/ml). To identify the effect of Gm614 overexpression on gene expression, we determined mRNA profiles in Gm614-overexpressed and vector-transduced SP 2/0 cells by RNA-seq. RNA-seq was done with an Illumina HiSeq 2500 instrument at GENEWIZ, Suzhou, China.
