Application Note: Alternative transcript isoform detection with single-cell and spatial resolution

Written by Oxford Nanopore

Transcript isoforms play a vital role in heath and disease, but studying them has been challenging due to limitations in traditional methods. By combining long nanopore sequencing reads with single-cell assays, researchers can identify full-length transcripts with single-cell resolution.

This Application Note introduces a new library preparation method compatible with 10x Genomics and Oxford Nanopore Technologies’ PromethION device to enable more efficient single-cell calling and clustering by gene expression and cell-type annotation.

In this Application Note explore:

  • Oxford Nanopore Technologies’ sequencing compatibility
  • How to resolve cell barcoding and UMI assignments
  • How full-length reads allow clustering by isoform expression and detection of alternative transcripts with single-cell and spatial resolution

And much more!
