The white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes) is an endangered species in Europe with limited genomic information. Despite its conservation status there is no transcriptomic data available for A. pallipes in public databases. The data here represents the first transcriptome profile of the white-clawed crayfish generated using Illumina stranded RNA sequencing. Pair-end reads were assembled de novo with three separate transcriptome assemblers (Trinity, RNABloom, and RNASpades) followed by transcript assembly reduction and gene reconstruction using the EvidentialGene pipeline. The transcriptome was functionally annotated using InterProScan and genes coding for carbohydrate-active enzymes were identified through the dbCAN2 server. Raw fastq reads and the final version of the transcriptome assembly have been deposited in the NCBI-SRA (SRR10549898) and NCBI-TSA (GICG01) databases.
