  • System and Methods for Massively Parallel Analysis of Nucleic Acids in Single Cells
    Publication number: 20140057799
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for massively parallel genetic analysis of single cells in emulsion droplets or reaction containers. Genetic loci of interest are targeted in a single cell using a set of probes, and a fusion complex is formed by molecular linkage and amplification techniques. Methods are provided for high-throughput, massively parallel analysis of the fusion complex in a single cell in a population of at least 10,000 cells. Also provided are methods for tracing genetic information back to a cell using barcode sequences.
