Single Cell Gene Expression and ATAC Service
Creative Biolabs provides a comprehensive range of customized, high-quality services in single cell gene expression and ATAC to support scientific research in related biomedical industries worldwide. With extensive experience and expertise, we offer single cell gene expression and ATAC service to understand the cell types and states, which enables deeper insights into gene regulatory programs that can investigate the complexities of diseases.
Chromatin Open Region
Eukaryotic chromosomes are formed by a series of folding events in nucleosome structures generated by DNA molecules wrapping histone proteins. There are some regions of chromatin that are loosely reformed, called open chromatin or open chromatin regions, where both DNA replication and gene transcription occur. Therefore, obtaining the information will help us understand the regulation of gene expression by open regions, as well as better understand biological regulation. ATAC-seq (Assay for Transposase Accessible Chromatin using sequencing), a research technique for chromatin accessibility, uses the modified Tn5 transposase to integrate its adapter payload into regions of accessible chromatin, therefore, amplifiable DNA fragments suitable for high-throughput sequencing are preferentially generated at locations of open chromatin, which can help reveal the interplay between genomic locations of open chromatin, DNA binding proteins, individual nucleosomes, and higher-order compaction at regulatory regions with nucleotide resolution (Buenrostro; et al., 2013).
Single Cell Multiome ATAC and Gene Expression
The 10x Genomics single cell ATAC and gene expression technology offers a comprehensive, scalable multi-omic technique for simultaneously analyzing epigenomic landscape and gene expression in the same single nucleus. The relationship between chromatin accessibility and gene expression is more objective and genuine through this way, which is also useful in determining gene expression regulation. The technological principle of the technique is depicted as follows.

Features & Benefits
1. High throughput
About 500-10,000 nuclei can be obtained per channel efficiently; for high throughput platform, we can run 8 samples (80,000 nuclei per run) in one experiment.
2. High resolution
The gene expression and chromatin accessibility information can be obtained at a single-cell nucleus level.
3. High capture efficiency
The capture efficiency of nuclei can reach up to 65% per sample.
4. More comprehensive information
We can get information on all open chromatin regions, not limited to a single transcription factor.
5. One-stop service
We can provide one-stop service from sample processing to data visualization; or provide customized analysis procedures with the most up-to-date technical solutions.
