Single Cell Sequencing Analysis Service
Single-cell sequencing technologies such as 10X Genomics, BD Phrapsody, and Illumina Hiseq have emerged that allow us to profile the genome, transcriptome and epigenomics of individual cells, unravel the heterogeneity of cell genotype, phenotype, and function within a complex cell population. Currently, single-cell sequencing technologies have been applied in a wide of life science research, including in oncology, developmental biology, microbiology, neuroscience, botany, and other fields. As an expert in the field of single-cell sequencing and analysis, Creative Biolabs provides the best and most comprehensive single-cell sequencing and analysis services.
- Single-cell DNA sequencing: It is an approach for investigating the genome information of a single cell. Based on this technique, the genomic heterogeneity of cell populations can be explored, including genetic point mutations and copy variation occurring in normal and disease development processes.
- Single-cell DNA methylome sequencing: It is applied for identification and quantification for DNA methylation at single-cell level.
- Single-cell RNA sequencing: It is used to investigate the expression profiles of individual cells at high resolution, reveal the heterogeneous gene expression patterns in a wide range of tissues and cell populations, and explain the response of an individual cell to different environmental signals and conditions.
Single Cell Copy Number Variation (CNV) Analysis
Copy number variation (CNV) is an important type of somatic aberration, which is associated with various diseases. Our powerful NGS technologies are reliable, efficient, high scale and resolution methods for analyzing CNVs at the single-cell level, and are applied in a variety of research areas, such as determining tumor heterogeneity, characterizing cell lines, uncovering neuronal mosaicism…
Single Cell Single Nucleotide Variation (SNV) Analysis
Single nucleotide variations (SNVs) are genetic alterations of a single base observed in specific cells as compared to the population background. SNVs occurring in somatic cells are associated with many diseases, such as tumor, obesity, and diabetes mellitus and so on. Single Cell provides reliable SNV detection and analysis at single-cell level, allowing for a new understanding of cellular heterogeneity.
Single Cell Insertion and Deletion (InDel) Analysis
Insertions and deletions (InDels) are a type of genomic variations that refer to the insertion and/or deletion of nucleotides into genomic DNA. They can be used as genetic markers in disease diagnosis and cell-type identification. With the extensive experience in single-cell sequencing and analysis, Single Cell leverages single-cell sequencing techniques and bioinformatics tools to offer high-quality services for single-cell InDel analysis.
Single Cell Lineage Tracing Analysis
Lineage tracing allows for the identification of all progeny of a single cell, which provides a detailed understanding of cellular hierarchies in tissue development, homeostasis, and disease. Single Cell combines single-cell transcriptome sequencing with genetic lineage labels to provide the best single-cell lineage tracing analysis services.
Single Cell Gene Expression Analysis
Single-cell gene expression profiling allows for understanding changes in gene expression of individual cells, helping to explain the cell heterogeneity in the context of tissue or tumor. Based on the 10x Genomics Chromium platform, we offer high-throughput and high-resolution functional gene expression analysis in tens of thousands of cells simultaneously, to characterize cell populations, cell types, and cell states.

Single Cell Clustering Analysis
We employ the best clustering algorithms to perform single cell clustering analysis according to the gene expression data. Meanwhile, t-SNE analysis is used to visually display the results of cell clustering. The proportion of each cell subgroup in different samples can be statistically analyzed.
Single Cell Type Identification Analysis
We support to analyze and process large amounts of RNA-seq data to identify cell type-specific gene signatures, providing analysis of cell type including complex and rare cell populations.
Single Cell Marker Gene Detection Analysis
Identification of marker genes is of great importance for determining cell type and for understanding cell-specific gene function and the molecular mechanisms underlying complex diseases. Single Cell can characterize marker genes of different cell subpopulations and visually display expression information of these genes.
Single Cell Different Gene Analysis Between Different Cell Populations
Based on RNA-seq data, we can profile the changes in gene expression levels between different cell subpopulations, unlocking the mystery in gene expression profiles between individual cells.
Single Cell Gene Ontology (GO) Analysis
Gene Ontology (GO) is a major bioinformatics initiative to unify the representation of gene and gene product attributes across all species. We can annotate functions of marker genes or differentially expressed genes based on NCBI/UNIPROT/SWISSPROT/AMIGO GO database, thereby extracting the key GO terms that are significantly enriched in these gene groups.
Single Cell KEGG Pathway Analysis
Based on KEGG database, we can analyze gene pathways and find gene clusters of co-expressed genes sharing the same pathway.
Single Cell RNA Velocity Analysis
Velocyto algorithm is adopted to predict the direction of change of individual cells and obtain the transformation process between cells.
Single Cell Pesudotime Analysis
By gene expressing data of cells as the research object, using TSCAN/reviewed/SLICER/Ouija algorithm, the change of cell model is analyzed on the virtual time axis. The dynamic change process of reconstructed cells is simulated, obtaining the state transition between cells, as well as the differential gene expression between cells under different states.

Single Cell Communication Analysis
By the gene expression data of cell subgroups as the research object, the expression information of ligand and receptor genes of cells is obtained, and the signal communication relationship between cell subgroups is obtained.
Single Cell TCGA Prognostic Combination Analysis
By the clinical information of TCGA and the screened key genes as the research object, combining the clinical data of TCGA, we perform single-cell TCGA prognostic combination analysis. The relationship between the key genes and the clinical prognosis is obtained.
Single Cell Chromatin Accessibility Analysis
We provide single-cell chromatin accessibility analysis to reveal cell state transcriptional regulators and cellular lineage relationships.
Single Cell DNA Methylation Analysis
DNA methylation is the most stable epigenetic mark that is involved in several biological processes, including X-chromosome inactivation, repression of transposable elements, aging, and carcinogenesis. We provide detailed DNA methylation analysis, uncovering cell cycle regulation, differential gene expression, and epigenetic effects.
Single Cell Spatial Patterns of Gene Expression Analysis
Spatial localization is very important for cellular fate and behavior. We offer single-cell spatial patterns of gene expression analysis, aiming to deeply profile cellular function.
