Extracted molecule
total RNA
Extraction protocol
Total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA, USA) and the RNAprotect reagent (Qiagen) and DNA was removed by on-column DNase digestion with the RNase-Free DNase set (Qiagen). RNA quality and concentration was determined by analysis with an Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer at the Harvard-Partners Center for Genetics and Genomics (Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, MA USA).
