Spatial isoform sequencing at single-cell resolution reveals cell-type-specific spatial isoform variability in multiple brain cell types

Spatial long-read technologies are increasingly common but usually lack single-cell resolution. This leaves unanswered whether spatially variable isoforms reflect variability within one cell type or differences in region-specific cell-type composition. Here, we developed Spl-ISO-Seq2 (500-nm resolution) and accompanyin...

Single-cell splice isoform usage reveals distinct axes of cellular identity and senescence

A cross-tissue single-cell long-read isoform atlas spanning 26 human tissues is presented and it is demonstrated that isoform usage is a structured, measurable axis of cellular identity that is distinct from gene expression.

Long-read proteogenomic atlas of human neuronal differentiation reveals isoform diversity informing neurodevelopmental risk mechanisms

Deep long-read RNA sequencing and proteomics in induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cortical neurons is integrated to generate a high-resolution proteogenomic atlas of human neuron development, uncovering thousands of novel isoforms and revealing dynamic splicing changes in autism risk genes.

Systematic benchmarking of commercial workflows for isoform-resolved single-nucleus transcriptomics

This study provides a systematic assessment of four commercially available workflows for performing LR snRNA-seq and highlights key methodological trade-offs related to distinct library preparation strategies, thus providing practical guidance for future isoform-resolved transcriptome studies at the single-nucleus leve...
