RNA-seq analysis about Lx8-SINE B2 knocked down samples

We identified a novel long non-coding RNA Lx8-SINE B2, that is a marker of pluripotency. Depletion of Lx8-SINE B2 impacts embryonic stem cell self-renewal. RNA-seq analysis of Lx8-SINE B2 depletion revealed that a number of glycolytic genes with decreased expression. Mechanistically, we found that the Lx8-SINE B2 activates the glycolysis pathway by binding to Eno1. Collectively, our data suggest that Lx8-SINE B2 maintains the self-renewal of mESCs through glycolysis. Overall design: We knocked down Lx8-SINE B2 by shRNAs in E14. We performed RNA-seq analysis in order to exam the transcriptome.
