Figure 4. Data quality analysis of RNA-seq and validation.

Figure 4

Principal component analysis (PCA) of (a) all sequenced samples (total 30 samples), (b) ribosome-free and (c) polysome-bound samples at D0, D1, D4, D9 and D15 (n = 3). RPKM values (polysome-bound) heatmap of (d) developmental markers showing mesoderm, cardiac mesoderm, endoderm and ectoderm genes expression; and (e) cardiac markers showing cardiomyocytes (CM), endothelial cells (EC) and smooth muscle cells (SMC) genes expression. (f) RNA-seq data validation of cardiac developmental marker gene expression using qPCR. Relative expression to hESC (D0) of pluripotency (POU5F1 and NANOG), mesoderm (T and EOMES) and cardiac markers (GATA4, NKX2-5 and TNNT2) on distinct days of cardiac differentiation using RNA-seq and q-PCR data. Values are expressed in log2 base.
