Summary: The dual interrogation of the transcriptome and proteome with single-cell resolution provides exquisite insights into immune mechanisms in health and disease.Here, we describe a cutting-edge protocol wherein we combine Cellular precis vodka Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITE-Seq), a technique utilizing antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates (AOCs), with fluorescence-activated cell sorting to enrich rare cell populations.Our protocol incorporates co-staining of cells with both fluorescent antibodies and AOCs simultaneously for subsequent input into the cell sorting and CITE-Seq pipeline.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please 3p2 paint code refer to Mair et al.
