Quantifying protein abundance on single cells using split-pool sequencing on DNA-barcoded antibodies for diagnostic applications.

ABSTRACT: Proteins play critical roles across all facets of biology, with their abundance frequently used as markers of cell identity and state. The most popular method for detecting proteins on single cells, flow cytometry, is limited by considerations of fluorescent spectral overlap. While mass cytometry (CyTOF) allows for the detection of upwards of 40 epitopes simultaneously, it requires local access to specialized instrumentation not commonly accessible to many laboratories. To overcome these limitations, we independently developed a method to quantify multiple protein targets on single cells without the need for specialty equipment other than access to widely available next generation sequencing (NGS) services. We demonstrate that this combinatorial indexing method compares favorably to traditional flow-cytometry, and allows over two dozen target proteins to be assayed at a time on single cells. To showcase the potential of the technique, we analyzed peripheral blood and bone marrow aspirates from human clinical samples, and identified pathogenic cellular subsets with high fidelity. The ease of use of this technique makes it a promising technology for high-throughput proteomics and for interrogating complex samples such as those from patients with leukemia.

Microbial single-cell RNA sequencing by split-pool barcoding.

Project description:Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become an essential tool for characterizing gene expression in eukaryotes, but current methods are incompatible with bacteria. Here, we introduce microSPLiT (microbial split-pool ligation transcriptomics), a high-throughput scRNA-seq method for Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria that can resolve heterogeneous transcriptional states. We applied microSPLiT to >25,000 Bacillus subtilis cells sampled at different growth stages, creating an atlas of changes in metabolism and lifestyle. We retrieved detailed gene expression profiles associated with known, but rare, states such as competence and prophage induction and also identified unexpected gene expression states, including the heterogeneous activation of a niche metabolic pathway in a subpopulation of cells. MicroSPLiT paves the way to high-throughput analysis of gene expression in bacterial communities that are otherwise not amenable to single-cell analysis, such as natural microbiota.

Microbial single-cell RNA sequencing by split-pool barcoding

Project description:We introduce microSPLiT, a low cost and high-throughput single-cell RNA-sequencing method for gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. We applied microSPLiT to >25,000 Bacillus subtilis cells sampled at different growth stages, creating a detailed atlas of changes in metabolism and lifestyle. We not only retrieve detailed gene expression profiles associated with known, but rare, states such as competence and PBSX prophage induction, but also identify novel and unexpected gene expression states including a heterogeneous activation of a niche metabolic pathway (myo-inositol catabolism) in a subpopulation of cells.

Nuclei multiplexing with barcoded antibodies for single-nucleus genomics.

Project description:Single-nucleus RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) enables the interrogation of cellular states in complex tissues that are challenging to dissociate or are frozen, and opens the way to human genetics studies, clinical trials, and precise cell atlases of large organs. However, such applications are currently limited by batch effects, processing, and costs. Here, we present an approach for multiplexing snRNA-seq, using sample-barcoded antibodies to uniquely label nuclei from distinct samples. Comparing human brain cortex samples profiled with or without hashing antibodies, we demonstrate that nucleus hashing does not significantly alter recovered profiles. We develop DemuxEM, a computational tool that detects inter-sample multiplets and assigns singlets to their sample of origin, and validate its accuracy using sex-specific gene expression, species-mixing and natural genetic variation. Our approach will facilitate tissue atlases of isogenic model organisms or from multiple biopsies or longitudinal samples of one donor, and large-scale perturbation screens.

Single-Domain Antibodies As Versatile Affinity Reagents for Analytical and Diagnostic Applications.

Project description:With just three CDRs in their variable domains, the antigen-binding site of camelid heavy-chain-only antibodies (HcAbs) has a more limited structural diversity than that of conventional antibodies. Even so, this does not seem to limit their specificity and high affinity as HcAbs against a broad range of structurally diverse antigens have been reported. The recombinant form of their variable domain [nanobody (Nb)] has outstanding properties that make Nbs, not just an alternative option to conventional antibodies, but in many cases, these properties allow them to reach analytical or diagnostic performances that cannot be accomplished with conventional antibodies. These attributes include comprehensive representation of the immune specificity in display libraries, easy adaptation to high-throughput screening, exceptional stability, minimal size, and versatility as affinity building block. Here, we critically reviewed each of these properties and highlight their relevance with regard to recent developments in different fields of immunosensing applications.

Split-pool combinatorial barcoding sequencing of murine immune cells

Project description:Single-cell RNA sequencing experiments commonly use 10x Genomics kits due to their high-throughput capacity and standardized protocols. Recently, Parse Biosciences introduced an alternative technology that uses multiple in-situ barcoding rounds within standard 96-well plates. The Parse technology allows the analysis of more cells from multiple samples in a single run without using additional reagents or specialized microfluidics equipment. To assess the efficacy of both platforms, we carried out a benchmark study using biological and technical replicates of young murine thymus as a complex immune tissue. To optimally utilize the capacity of Parse high-throughput kits, we also performed sequencing of murine splenocytes from a chronic stress model and control animals.

Ultra-high throughput single-cell analysis of proteins and RNAs by split-pool synthesis.

Project description:Single-cell omics provide insight into cellular heterogeneity and function. Recent technological advances have accelerated single-cell analyses, but workflows remain expensive and complex. We present a method enabling simultaneous, ultra-high throughput single-cell barcoding of millions of cells for targeted analysis of proteins and RNAs. Quantum barcoding (QBC) avoids isolation of single cells by building cell-specific oligo barcodes dynamically within each cell. With minimal instrumentation (four 96-well plates and a multichannel pipette), cell-specific codes are added to each tagged molecule within cells through sequential rounds of classical split-pool synthesis. Here we show the utility of this technology in mouse and human model systems for as many as 50 antibodies to targeted proteins and, separately, >70 targeted RNA regions. We demonstrate that this method can be applied to multi-modal protein and RNA analyses. It can be scaled by expansion of the split-pool process and effectively renders sequencing instruments as versatile multi-parameter flow cytometers.

SPATAC-seq: split-pool ligation-based single cell ATAC-seq method

Project description:To establish an ultra-high-throughput single cell chromatin accessibility profiling method that is cost-effective and widely accessible, we built on sci-ATAC-seq (Cusanovich, D. A. et al. Science. 2015; Amini, S. et al. Nature Genetics. 2014) and SPLIT-seq (Rosenberg, A. B. et al. Science. 2018) to design SPATAC-seq, which in situ label chromatin fragment in the same single cell through combinatorial barcoding. Briefly, in SPATAC-seq, (1) fixed nuclei are transposed in 48 different wells by 48 unique Tn5 transposase, which containing barcoded adaptors and 5'-phosphorylation; (2) the nuclei from all wells are collected and redistributed into second and third 48-well plate in turn, where the next two rounds of indexing are achieved through into either end of the custom transposome, which result in the generation of more than 110,000 (48^3) unique barcode combinations. (3) the nuclei are pooled, split into sublibraries and lysed, and the DNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which introduce illumina sequencing barcodes and complete libraries construction. (4) After sequencing, fastq files were demultiplexed according to the same four-barcode combinations. For profiling more cells in one sublibrary, we can increase the number of barcode combinations by increase the number of indexing of each round to 96, which can produce about 1 million combinations. To assess the fidelity of SPATAC-seq, we performed a species-mixing experiment with cultured human (K562) and mouse (Hepa) cells. Here, we tagged mixed permeabilized nuclei with only 8 barcoded transposome. In round 4, we generated eight sublibraries with different cell-recovery targets, which can be used to evaluating the stability of this method and the correlation between real doublet rates and theoretical value.

High-Throughput Mapping of Single-Neuron Projections by Sequencing of Barcoded RNA.

Project description:Neurons transmit information to distant brain regions via long-range axonal projections. In the mouse, area-to-area connections have only been systematically mapped using bulk labeling techniques, which obscure the diverse projections of intermingled single neurons. Here we describe MAPseq (Multiplexed Analysis of Projections by Sequencing), a technique that can map the projections of thousands or even millions of single neurons by labeling large sets of neurons with random RNA sequences ("barcodes"). Axons are filled with barcode mRNA, each putative projection area is dissected, and the barcode mRNA is extracted and sequenced. Applying MAPseq to the locus coeruleus (LC), we find that individual LC neurons have preferred cortical targets. By recasting neuroanatomy, which is traditionally viewed as a problem of microscopy, as a problem of sequencing, MAPseq harnesses advances in sequencing technology to permit high-throughput interrogation of brain circuits.

Cell Hashing with barcoded antibodies enables multiplexing and doublet detection for single cell genomics.

Project description:Despite rapid developments in single cell sequencing, sample-specific batch effects, detection of cell multiplets, and experimental costs remain outstanding challenges. Here, we introduce Cell Hashing, where oligo-tagged antibodies against ubiquitously expressed surface proteins uniquely label cells from distinct samples, which can be subsequently pooled. By sequencing these tags alongside the cellular transcriptome, we can assign each cell to its original sample, robustly identify cross-sample multiplets, and "super-load" commercial droplet-based systems for significant cost reduction. We validate our approach using a complementary genetic approach and demonstrate how hashing can generalize the benefits of single cell multiplexing to diverse samples and experimental designs.
