CEL-Seq

Cell expression by linear amplification sequencing (CEL-Seq) is a method that utilizes barcoding and pooling of RNA to overcome challenges from low input. In this method, each cell undergoes reverse transcription with a unique barcoded primer in its individual tube. After second-strand synthesis, cDNAs from all reaction tubes are pooled, and PCR-amplified. Paired-end deep sequencing of the PCR products allows for accurate detection of sequence derived from sequencing both strands.
