Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein is generally directed to isolating single cells and nuclei from tissue samples for use in the analysis of single cells from archived biological samples. The subject matter disclosed herein is directed to isolating single cells and nuclei from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. The subject matter disclosed herein is also directed to isolating single nuclei that preserve ribosomes or ribosomes and rough ER from frozen tissues. The subject matter disclosed herein is also directed to therapeutic targets, diagnostic targets and methods of screening for modulating agents.

Abstract: The present invention provides for methods and compositions for specifically targeting a nuclei type in a multinucleated cell or population of multinucleated cells, wherein the composition comprises one or more nucleotide sequences operably linked to one or more regulatory sequences specifically active in the nuclei.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are sensor systems, compositions comprising the sensor systems, and methods of using the same. In particular aspects, disclosed herein are sensor systems for a target intracellular ligand and uses thereof, e.g., in detection assays or in cell manipulation or therapeutic applications.

Abstract: Techniques Nuc-seq, Div-Seq, and Dronc-Seq are allow for unbiased analysis of any complex tissue. Nuc-Seq, a scalable single nucleus RNA-Seq method, can sensitively identify closely related cell types, including within the adult hippocampus. Div-seq combines Nuc-Seq with EdU-mediated labeling of proliferating cells, allowing tracking of transcriptional dynamics of newborn neurons in an adult neurogenic region in the hippocampus. Dronc-Seq uses a microfluidic device to co-encapsulate individual nuclei in reverse emulsion aqueous droplets in an oil medium together with one uniquely barcoded mRNA-capture bead.
