MATQ-seq allows the detection of a large number of genes per single bacterium and is characterized by a high cell retention rate. 🦠 A #HIRI & @uni-wuerzburg.de research team recently published a step-by-step protocol in @natprot.nature.com. Learn more ⬇

Last week's @embo.org Sectoral Meeting on #RNA and Structural Biology, organized by #HIRI's @emmanuel-saliba.bsky.social, was a huge success. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed and participated! 👏🧬 Read more: www.helmholtz-hiri.de/en/newsroom/...

I'm happy to share the first publication from my lab @hoerlab.bsky.social, now out in @narjournal.bsky.social! I take a look at the biology of RNA phages, focusing on how meta-omics methods are discovering new RNA phage families and bacterial defense strategies. #PhageSky doi.org/10.1093/nar/...

My guidelines for exploratory data analysis

Microbial single-cell MATQ-seq developed by @emmanuel-saliba.bsky.social & @jorg-vogel-lab.bsky.social allows detection of a large number of genes per single bacterium & stands out for its high rate of cell retention. For a detailed protocol, see rdcu.be/eg0Xc, now available @natprot.bsky.social.

If you want to do single-cell RNA-seq on your favourite bacterium, here‘s our detailed Nature Protocol for microbial MATQ-seq. It profiles up to 600 genes in a single bacterial cell! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
