Whole blood samples were collected from patients diagnosed with 7 disseminated tuberculosis (DTB) Cells were stained with 0.4% Trypan blue (Thermo Fisher, Cat. no. 14190144) to check the viability on Countess® II Automated Cell Counter (Thermo Fisher). 10× library preparation and sequencing Beads with unique molecular identifier (UMI) and cell barcodes were loaded close to saturation, so that each cell was paired with a bead in a Gel Beads-in emulsion (GEM). After exposure to cell lysis buffer, polyadenylated RNA molecules hybridized to the beads. Beads were retrieved into a single tube for reverse transcription. On cDNA synthesis, each cDNA molecule was tagged on the 5'end (that is, the 3'end of a messenger RNA transcript) with UMI and cell label indicating its cell of origin. Briefly, 10× beads that were then subject to second-strand cDNA synthesis, adaptor ligation, and universal amplification. Sequencing libraries were prepared using randomly interrupted whole-transcriptome amplification products to enrich the 3' end of the transcripts linked with the cell barcode and UMI. All the remaining procedures including the library construction were performed according to the standard manufacturer's protocol (CG000206 RevD). Sequencing libraries were quantified using a High Sensitivity DNA Chip (Agilent) on a Bioanalyzer 2100 and the Qubit High Sensitivity DNA Assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The libraries were sequenced on NovaSeq6000 (Illumina) using 2x150 chemistry.
