Abstract
Provided herein, among other things, is a method for spatial single cell analysis. In some embodiments, the method may comprise: obtaining a cellular sample comprising nucleic acid molecules, binding spatial tags to the sample, removing any unbound or unreacted spatial tags, determining the location and identity of the spatial tag, dissociating the sample into single cells, performing single cell sequencing, determine the spatial barcode for each single cell, and assigning the single cell sequencing reads to its spatial location.
Claims21
A method for adding spatial tags to cells, comprising:
- (a) distinguishably labeling at least some of the cells of a sample containing spatially associated cells;
- (b) analyzing the sample to identify (i) the positions of cells in the sample and (ii) the labels that are bound to the cells;
- and
- (c) dissociating the sample into individual cells without disassociating the tags from the cells, to obtain a cell suspension in which the locations of some of the cells in the sample of (a) is known.
