The SG-NEx project is an international collaboration that was initiated at the Genome Institute of Singapore. The aim of the SG-NEx Project is to generate reference transcriptomes for 5 of the most commonly used cancer cell lines using Nanopore long read RNA-Seq data:
Transcriptome profiling is done using PCR-cDNA sequencing ("PCR-cDNA"), amplification-free cDNA sequencing ("direct cDNA"), direct sequencing of native RNA (“direct RNA”), and short read RNA-Seq. All samples are sequenced with at least 3 high quality replicates. For a subset of samples, we used sequin spike-in RNAs.

Notes on data usage: This site provides early access to the SG-NEx data. These data can be used in research and publications, but we ask data users to refrain from publishing a systematic comparison that is described in the pre-print until the final manuscript is published. If you are uncertain, please feel free to reach out (Contact).
