Project description:Joint profiling of chromatin accessibility and gene expression from the same single cell provides critical information about cell types in a tissue and cell states during a dynamic process. These emerging multi-omics techniques help the investigation of cell-type resolved gene regulatory mechanisms. Here, we developed in situ SHERRY after ATAC-seq (ISSAAC-seq), a highly sensitive and flexible single cell multi-omics method to interrogate chromatin accessibility and gene expression from the same single cell. We demonstrated that ISSAAC-seq is sensitive and provides high quality data with orders of magnitude more features than existing methods. Using the joint profiles from thousands of nuclei from the mouse cerebral cortex, we uncovered major and rare cell types together with their cell-type specific regulatory elements and expression profiles. Finally, we revealed distinct dynamics and relationships of transcription and chromatin accessibility during an oligodendrocyte maturation trajectory.
Project description:This study used droplet-based snATAC-seq to profile the chromatin accessibility landscape of 19,204 nuclei in the opossum (Monodelphis domestical) cerebellum across two developmental stages (postnatal day 21 and adult). The study included two biological replicates per stage, one from each sex, and an additional adult sample enriched for white matter. Cerebelli were dissected in two halves, nuclei were extracted from one half and profiled using 10x single-cell ATAC reagent kit (v1.1) and a Chromium controller. The white matter enriched sample was dissected from coronal cerebellum slices. Libraries were sequenced using paired-reads on Illumina NextSeq 550 and initial data processing was performed using Cellranger ATAC (1.1).
Project description:This study used droplet-based snATAC-seq to profile the chromatin accessibility landscape of 91,922 nuclei in the mouse cerebellum across eleven developmental stages, from the beginning of neurogenesis (e10.5) till adulthood (P63). The study included two biological replicates per stage, one from each sex. Cerebelli were dissected as whole or in two halves, nuclei were extracted and profiled using 10x single-cell ATAC reagent kit (v1.0) and a Chromium controller. Libraries were sequenced using paired-reads on Illumina NextSeq 550 and initial data processing was performed using Cellranger ATAC (1.1).
Project description:The assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) is widely used to identify regulatory regions throughout the genome. However, only a few studies have been done at the single cell level (scATAC-seq) due to technical difficulties. Here we developed a simple and robust plate-based scATAC-seq method, combining upfront bulk tagmentation with single-nuclei sorting, to investigate open chromatin regions. We applied this method on mouse splenocytes and unbiasedly revealed key regulatory regions and transcription factors that define each cell (sub)type.
Project description:Using Multiome and previously published sc/snRNA-seq data, we studied eight anatomical regions of the human heart including left and right ventricular free walls (LV and RV), left and right atria (LA and RA), left ventricular apex (AX), interventricular septum (SP), sino-atrial node (SAN) and atrioventricular node (AVN). For the first time, we profile the cells of the human cardiac conduction system, revealing their distinctive repertoire of ion channels, G-protein coupled receptors and cell-cell interactions. We map the identified cells to spatial transcriptomic data to discover cellular niches within the eight regions of the heart.
Project description:Plasmodium-specific CD4+ T cells from mice infected with Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi AS parasites were recovered at Days 0, 4, 7, and 32 to undergo processing and to generate scATAC-seq dataset. At Day 7, CXCR5+ and CXCR6+ cells were recovered separately. At Day 32, mice were administered with either saline or artesunate (intermittent artesunate therapy - IAT). scATAC-seq dataset was analysed to investigate epigenomic landscapes of CD4+ T cells from effector to memory states.
Project description:Gata5/6 are essential regulators in zebrafish heart development. To understand how Gata5/6 affects the chromatin accessibility and regulates cardiac gene expression, we FACS-isolated GFP+ and GFP- cells from Tg(gata5:GFP) transgenic embryos in both control and Gata5/6 deficient embryos (injected with Gata5/6 morpholinos) and conducted ATAC-seq. We performed the experiments at 8 hours post fertilization, intending to dissect the role of Gata5/6 in the earliest step in cardiac lineage specification. We did 2-3 biological replicates for each sample. ATAC-seq libraries were made using previously published protocol (Buenrostro et al., Nat. Methods, 2013. DOI: 10.1038/nmeth.2688) and sequenced on Illumina Hiseq2500.
