How does scRNA sequencing work?
scRNA-seq measures the RNA molecules within each cell of a given sample. This information provides a snapshot of the transcriptome (the genes that were being transcribed) when the cells were harvested. Since its development, scRNA-seq has found a large variety of applications.
How many cells do you need for scRNA-seq?
Single-Cell RNA-Seq requires at least 50,000 cells (1 million is recommended) as an input. See below for more information about sample submission guidelines.
How do you identify cell types in scRNA-seq?
Cell type identification using scRNA-seq traditionally involves two steps. First, the cells are clustered using an unsupervised method, and then the clusters are annotated to different cell types based on canonical markers found in the differentially expressed genes of the cluster [11], [12] (Fig.
How does 10x scRNA-seq work?
10x Genomics' single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) technology, the Chromium Single Cell 3' solution, allows you to analyze transcriptomes on a cell-by-cell basis through the use of microfluidic partitioning to capture single cells and prepare barcoded, next-generation sequencing (NGS) cDNA libraries.
