mRNA Sequencing of Human PromoCells Using 3''-directed Digital Gene Expression (3''-DGE) Technique

The differential gene expression of human cardiomyocytes induced by kinase inhibitors sorafenib and sunitinib is measured by a high-throughput mRNA-sequencing approach called 3''-DGE, that is based on a 3'' end-focused reference sequence library and a transcript molecule counting method with unique molecular identifiers (UMI) for correcting PCR bias. Overall design: Cells were treated with sunitinib, sorafenib, or vehicle control for 48 hours, and gene expression levels of all samples were measured by 3''-DGE and conventional random-primed mRNA-sequencing methods using paired-end reading to obtain the genome-wide expression profiles for each sample.
