Abstract

Increasing knowledge about the heterogeneity of mRNA expression within cell populations highlights the need to study transcripts at the level of single cells. We present a method for detection and genotyping of individual transcripts based on padlock probes and in situ target-primed rolling-circle amplification. We detect a somatic point mutation, differentiate between members of a gene family and perform multiplex detection of transcripts in human and mouse cells and tissue.
