Description
The lineage of the horizontal basal cells (HBC) stem cells and other Sox2eGFP-positive cells from the olfactory epithelium were profiled by single-cell RNA-Seq to identify differentiated cells types, intermediate stages, transition states, and to infer the lineage trajectories. Overall design: Horizontal basal cell (HBC) stem cells from the olfactory epithelium that were either wild-type or mutant for the transcription factor Trp63/p63 were lineage traced, collected by FACS, and profiled by single-cell RNA-seq. Additionally, Sox2eGFP transgenic cells from the olfactory epithelium were combined with this data into one data set that was processed together. A minimum of two biological replicates were collected for each time-point/experimental condition. A total of 680 YFP-positive lineage traced cells plus 169 Sox2eGFP-positive cells were used in this analysis.
