Unlocking full-length transcript architecture with direct cell-barcode recovery on Oxford Nanopore.

From technology to biology—hear directly from platform developers, sequencing experts, and early-access users addressing a real biological question.

Beyond Gene Expression: Single-Cell Isoform-Resolved Biology

Webinar

Why This Webinar?

Prof. Hayrabedyan’s laboratory (Institute of Biology and Immunology of Reproduction, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences) is using the ArgenTag kit with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to study transcript-variant changes between a parental prostate cancer cell line and a stem-like cell population derived from it during culture. This requires resolving full-length transcripts at the single-cell level, rather than relying on gene-level expression alone.

Join our live session to explore the technical integration behind this workflow and see how it preserves cell identity while enabling precise, isoform- and fusion-resolved single-cell profiling.

What You’ll Learn

How ArgenTag generates full-length, cell-barcoded cDNA without dedicated cell-partitioning instrumentation.
How to prepare ArgenTag cDNA for Oxford Nanopore ligation sequencing.
Where gene-level expression falls short for questions about transcript structure.
Why full-length transcript resolution was key for Prof. Hayrabedyan’s team to uncover stem-like state transitions in prostate cancer.
What to consider when planning single-cell long-read studies.
