A Comprehensive Mouse Transcriptomic BodyMap across 17 Tissues by RNA-seq

we construct a comprehensive mouse transcriptomic BodyMap across 17 tissues of six-weeks old C57BL/6JJcl mice using RNA-seq. We find different expression patterns between protein-coding and non-coding genes. Liver and adrenal gland expressed the least complex transcriptome, whereas testis and ovary harbor more complex transcriptome than other tissues. We report a comprehensive list of tissue-specific genes across 17 tissues. Our study provides a unique resource of mouse gene-expression profiles, which is helpful for further biomedical research.
