Single-Cell RNA Sequencing
Our expert team uses Single-Cell RNA Sequencing to provide insights into transcriptional mechanisms and gene regulation of individual cells using 10x Genomics technology, for cell differentiation, therapeutic response, and biomarker discovery.
Single-Cell RNA Sequencing involves isolating individual cells from a sample and extracting their RNA to sequence it in order to obtain information on gene expression or genetic variations. This powerful approach provides a high-resolution view of cellular heterogeneity, revealing differences between cells that may be masked in bulk analyses. Our genomics specialists use the Chromium iX by 10x Genomics® for our Single-Cell RNA Sequencing solution.
This advanced platform allows our experts to explore gene expression profiles at a single-cell level, while integrating the data with cell
surface markers, TCR and BCR clone frequencies, and open chromatin analysis.
Our experts employ three specific protocols:
- The 3’ Protocol: Capturing the 3' end of mRNA transcripts to profile gene expression.
- The 5’ protocol: Focusing on the 5' end of mRNA transcripts to understand gene regulation and transcript structure.
- The Flex protocol to perform gene expression analysis across various sample preservation methods.
10x Genomics® GEM-X Technology Principle
10x Genomics® Technology uses droplet-based microfluidics to partition individual cells into tiny droplets, where each droplet is loaded with unique barcoded primers that enable the identification of individual cells during sequencing.
This technology allows for high-throughput analysis of thousands of individual cells, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of cellular heterogeneity.
