Individual cells matter — single-cell answers through nanopore sequencing


Abstract What you're missing matters and individual cells matter! Beginning with 10x Genomics cDNA, getting started with nanopore single-cell transcriptomics is a simple protocol that generates full-length cDNA reads and maximizes yield. Learn important wet-lab considerations, tips, and expectations when prepping your single-cell cDNA for nanopore sequencing.
