A minigene spanning the U2-type intron 13, the data were obtained from two independent platforms, using DNA U12-type intron 14, and flanking exons, was amplified from WT microarrays as well as RNA sequencing of poly-A enriched RNA and clbns846 genomic DNA using primers carrying 5′ tails (23 bp) from clbns846 whole larvae. This approach combines advantages to allow specific amplification of the exogenous transgene after of both technologies (i.e., well-established experimental and injection into zebrafish embryos. WT and mutant minigenes were analysis procedures for microarrays and the independence of confirmed by sequencing to differ only in the T→Amutation RNAseq from a priori knowledge of the zebrafish transcriptome) observed in clbns846. but takes into account the cost of RNAseq experiments as well as limitations on microarray content imposed by incomplete Preparation of Larval Extracts for snRNP Analyses.
