Description: Virus- and interferon alpha-induced transcriptomes of the “microbat” Myotis daubentonii (suborder Yangochiroptera). We stimulated M. daubentonii cells either with a strong IFN inducer virus or with type I IFN. Moreover, we measured global cellular transcription at two different time points and from three biological replicates using Illumina short-read RNA-Seq. Since no reference genome for M. daubentonii is publicly available so far, we used the genome of the closely related “microbat” M. lucifugus as a reference for RNA quantification, normalization, and differential expression analysis. Additionally, we de novo assembled the M. daubentonii transcriptomes using different assembly tools and a clustering approach.
