Many single-cell analysis techniques require the isolation of individual cells. Methods currently used for single-cell isolation include: dielectrophoretic digital sorting, enzymatic digestion, FACS, hydrodynamic traps, laser capture microdissection, manual picking, microfluidics, Inkjet Printing (IJP), micromanipulation, serial dilution, and Raman tweezers.
Like typical next-generation sequencing experiments, single-cell sequencing protocols generally contain the following steps: isolation of a single cell, nucleic acid extraction and amplification, sequencing library preparation, sequencing, and bioinformatic data analysis. It is more challenging to perform single-cell sequencing than sequencing ...
Cell isolation is the process of separating individual living cells from a solid block of tissue or cell suspension. While some types of cell naturally exist in a separated form (for example blood cells ), other cell types that are found in solid tissue require specific techniques to separate them into individual cells.
Typical single-cell RNA-Seq workflow. Single cells are isolated from a sample into either wells or droplets, cDNA libraries are generated and amplified, libraries are sequenced, and expression matrices are generated for downstream analyses like cell type identification.
After successfully transduced cells have been selected for, isolation of single cells is needed to conduct scRNA-seq. Perturb-seq and CROP-seq have been performed using droplet-based technology for single cell isolation, [1] [2] [3] while the closely related CRISP-seq was performed with a microwell-based approach. [4]
A further consideration when sequencing large, branched cell types, such as neurons, comes from the removal of distal processes containing local pools of RNA during the single-cell isolation process. In these cells, scRNA-seq datasets only capture transcript in the central cell body, omitting transcripts from RNA pools localized to cellular ...
Single cell ATAC-seq has been performed since 2015, using methods ranging from FACS sorting, microfluidic isolation of single cells, to combinatorial indexing. [8] In initial studies, the method was able to reliably separate cells based on their cell types, uncover sources of cell-to-cell variability, and show a link between chromatin ...
The quest for transcriptome data at the level of individual cells has driven advances in RNA-Seq library preparation methods, resulting in dramatic advances in sensitivity. Single-cell transcriptomes are now well described and have even been extended to in situ RNA-Seq where transcriptomes of individual cells are directly interrogated in fixed ...
