Abstract The simultaneous measurement of multiple modalities, known as multimodal analysis, represents an exciting frontier for single-cell genomics and necessitates new computational methods that can define cellular states based on data types. Here, we introduce ‘weighted-nearest neighbor’ unsupervised framework to learn the relative utility each type in cell, enabling integrative analysis modalities.

Abstract Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is generally used for profiling transcriptome of individual cells. The droplet-based 10X Genomics Chromium (10X) approach and the plate-based Smart-seq2 full-length method are two frequently scRNA-seq platforms, yet there only a few thorough systematic comparisons their advantages limitations. Here, by directly comparing data generated these platforms from same samples CD45− cells, we systematically evaluated features using wide spectrum analyses. detected more genes in cell, especially low abundance transcripts as well alternatively spliced transcripts, but captured higher proportion mitochondrial genes. composite also resembled bulk RNA-seq more.

High-throughput single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) methodologies enable characterization of complex biological samples by increasing the number cells that can be profiled contemporaneously. Nevertheless, these approaches recover less information per cell than low-throughput strategies. To accurately report expression key phenotypic features cells, scRNA-seq platforms are needed both high fidelity and throughput. address this need, we created Seq-Well S3 ("Second-Strand Synthesis"), a massively parallel protocol uses randomly primed second-strand synthesis to complementary DNA (cDNA) molecules were successfully reverse transcribed but which second oligonucleotide handle, necessary for subsequent whole transcriptome amplification, was not appended due inefficient template switching. increased efficiency transcript capture gene detection compared with previous iterations up 10- 5-fold, respectively.
