Beyond Gene Expression: Single-Cell Isoform-Resolved Biology
Webinar
Why This Webinar?
Prof. Hayrabedyan’s laboratory (Institute of Biology and Immunology of Reproduction, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences) is using the ArgenTag kit with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to study transcript-variant changes between a parental prostate cancer cell line and a stem-like cell population derived from it during culture. This requires resolving full-length transcripts at the single-cell level, rather than relying on gene-level expression alone.
Join our live session to explore the technical integration behind this workflow and see how it preserves cell identity while enabling precise, isoform- and fusion-resolved single-cell profiling.
What You’ll Learn
-
How ArgenTag generates full-length, cell-barcoded cDNA without dedicated cell-partitioning instrumentation.
-
How to prepare ArgenTag cDNA for Oxford Nanopore ligation sequencing.
-
Where gene-level expression falls short for questions about transcript structure.
-
Why full-length transcript resolution was key for Prof. Hayrabedyan’s team to uncover stem-like state transitions in prostate cancer.
-
What to consider when planning single-cell long-read studies.

Yes. A recording will be available shortly after the live session.
No. The focus is on workflows, performance, and real biological questions.
Yes. Live Q&A will be included.
No, but familiarity with RNA-seq workflows is helpful.
