Structure and Dynamics of Enterovirus Genotype Networks
Using a novel single-cell sequencing method, scRNAseq-Enabled Acquisition of mRNA and Consensus Haplotypes Linking Individual Genotypes and Host Transcriptomes (SEARCHLIGHT), we captured and assembled viral haplotypes from hundreds of individual infected cells to reveal the complexity of viral populations. We obtained these genotypes in parallel with host cell transcriptome information, enabling us to link host cell transcriptional phenotypes to the genetic structures underlying virus adaptation.
