Purpose: This is a post-GWAS functional study that aims to determine the effect of Akap11 knockout in mouse preosteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 during osteogenesis.;	Methods: mRNA profile of WT (treated with CRISPR and remains unedited) and Akap11 knockout MC3T3-E1 cells were generated by RNAseq from pooled RNA (from 3 biological triplicate at equal quantity) of various timepoint during osteogenesis (Day 0, 7,16, 25).100ng total RNA was used for library construction by KAPA Stranded mRNA-Seq Kit (Roche). Pair-End 101bp sequencing was performed in the Illumin HiSq1500 sequencer using the HiSeq SBS Kit v4 (Illumina). Data was collected with SCS version 1.4.8. Base calling was performed using Illuminas RTA (Version 1.12.4.2). 7 samples were sequenced per lane and achieved a sequencing depth of ~65 million read per sample.;	Results: Expression of osteogentic markers in Akap11 knockout MC3T3-E1 cells were suppressed. Genes invovled in IGF-I signaling pathway were signficantly altered. SOURCE: Vincent Ka Fai Cheng (u3003930@connect.hku.hk) -  The University of Hong Kong
