Background

  • Goal: the smallest functional unit; the exact quantity; full-length RNAs; sense vs anti-sense; all classes; at single-base resolution
  • Step 1: single cell; exact quantity; the 3' end; mRNA; RNAseq

Protocols

Single cell capture

1. Single cell capture by mouth pipetting [up to ~0.1 ul]

-Maintain the integrity of living single cells before lysis (dissociation - transfer - wash - transfer)
-PBS alone will cause tight attachment of cells to dish/micropipette, leading to rupture/loss of cells.

Cell lysis

1. Cell lysis protocol [up to ~4.55 ul] modified from Tang 2010, NProtocol, 5: 516

-Mild lysis buffer to ensure efficient lysis (thoroughly and completely lysed) w/o severely interfering with RT efficiency
-Positive control to establish the protocol (total RNA, 10pg, 50pg, 100pg, 500pg)
-Negative control to rule out the contamination from the start
