Additional file 4 provides RNA-seq analysis results for germ cell markers, biological functions, and key transcription factors during testis development in pubertal Simmental cattle. The dataset, authored by Junmei Zhang, is available as an XLSX file of 990.2 KB under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It was last updated on May 18, 2026.
Use Cases
- Identify germ cell-specific gene markers based on RNA-seq data mentioned in the description
- Analyze biological functions associated with testis development during puberty
- Study the role of key transcription factors in regulating spermatogenesis
- Compare gene expression profiles across developmental stages in cattle
Strengths
- Data is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license
- Focus on a specific developmental stage (puberty) and species (Simmental cattle)
- Analysis includes multiple biological aspects: markers, functions, and transcription factors
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- The dataset is relatively small (990.2 KB), suggesting limited scope
