Does anyone have a workflow or knows of a kit that allows for whole transcript single cell RNA Seq with reverse transcriptase barcoding of each cDNA, and also UMI labeling? We are currently interested to perform this in our lab but most vendors are cutting down to 5' or 3' ends for scRNA-Seq analysis and we still want the whole transcript.

NuGEN has a kit that has all the abovementioned features, the Ovation SoLo RNA-Seq Kit. -
I do not think this kit adds barcodes and UMIs to individual cDNA during RT as methods such as Drop-Seq does. Index (called barcode by NuGEN) and UMIs are added through adapter to amplified cDNA so it only identifies PCR duplicates generated during adapted library amplification. While Drop-Seq or 10X genomics single cell marks the 1st strand cDNA enabling identification of reads resulting from a single transcript.Originally posted by dwong View PostComment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
