METHODS OF SPATIALLY RESOLVED SINGLE CELL RNA SEQUENCING

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to spatial detection of a nucleic acid, such as a genomic DNA or a RNA transcript, in a cell comprised in a tissue sample. The present disclosure provides methods for detecting and/or analyzing nucleic acids, such as chromatin or RNA transcripts, so as to obtain spatial information about the localization, distribution or expression of genes in a tissue sample. The present disclosure thus provides a process for performing "spatial transcriptomics" or "spatial genomics," which enables the user to determine simultaneously the expression pattern, or the location/distribution pattern of the genes expressed or genes or genomic loci present in a single cell while retaining information related to the spatial location of the cell within the tissue architecture.
