ScarTrace is a CRISPR/Cas9-based genetic lineage tracing method that allows for uniquely barcoding the DNA of single cells at a target GFP sequence during developing zebrafish embryos. Single cells from barcoded adult zebrafish can be isolated from various tissues (e.g., marrow, brain, eyes, fins), and their transcriptome and barcode sequences are captured by single-cell cDNA amplification and genomic DNA nested PCR, respectively. Computationally, cell type and barcode identification permit clone tracing and lineage tree reconstruction of tissues to unravel fate decisions during embryogenesis.

摘要

ScarTrace is a CRISPR/Cas9-based genetic lineage tracing method that allows for uniquely barcoding the DNA of single cells at a target GFP sequence during developing zebrafish embryos. Single cells from barcoded adult zebrafish can be isolated from various tissues (e.g., marrow, brain, eyes, fins), and their transcriptome and barcode sequences are captured by single-cell cDNA amplification and genomic DNA nested PCR, respectively. Computationally, cell type and barcode identification permit clone tracing and lineage tree reconstruction of tissues to unravel fate decisions during embryogenesis.
