Bone marrow from the tibia, femur, pelvic bones, sternum, and spine was harvested by crushing the bones with a mortar and pestle in a PBS buffer supplemented with 5% new born calf serum. Cells were triturated to obtain a single cell suspension, and bone debris was removed by filtering through a 70μm cell strainer. Red cells were lysed with an ammonium chloride lysis buffer. Cells were first stained with biotin-conjugated lineage marker's anti-CD48, and anti-Flk2, followed by anti-biotin superparamagnetic beads (Dynabeads® Biotin Binder, Life technologies), and lineage marker expressing cells were depleted via magnetic separation. The fraction enriched for Lineage-/low cells was further incubated with antibodies against CD150, c-Kit, Sca1, and fluorophore-conjugated streptavidin. HSCs were sorted as LSK/CD48-/Flk2-/CD150+ cells, and the HSC population were sorted into subpopulations based on label retention of H2BGFP. Cells were sorted into PBS with 5% newborn calf serum, pelleted, and resuspended in Trizol for RNA extraction. Glycoblue (15ug/ml) was added prior to RNA precipitation. Libraries were prepared according to manufactures instructions (Clontech, SMART-Seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit). Briefly, up to 1ng of Total RNA from each sample was taken for library cDNA synthesis. The resulting cDNA was quantified using Quant-iT PicoGreen dsDNA Assay Kit (Invitrogen), and thecDNA integrity was assessed by Bioanalyzer.  100-300pg of cDNA was used for further library preparation uwing Nextera XT DNA Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina). Barcoded library concentrations and quality were assessed by Qbit (Invitrogen) and Bioanalyzer (Agilent).
