Illumina HiSeq 4000 paired end sequencing; Single-nucleus RNA-seq2 of liver tissue of 3 months old mice to investigate crosstalk between ploidy and zonation
Nuclei was isolated from frozen livers from young C57BL/6 mice (3 month old) using the protocol described in Krishnaswami et al. 2016 (Nature Protocols, 11: 499-524). Nuclei was purified using Iodixanol gradient (Optiprep, D1556, Sigma Aldrich Chemie). Nuclei were stained with Hoechst and FACS sorted according to their ploidy level diploid (2n) and tetraploid (4n) in 384-well plates.
