Technology Overview
The Mission Bio Tapestri Platform can perform targeted DNA sequencing in thousands of cells. It can detect single-nucleotide variations (SNV), indels, copy number variations (CNV), etc., at the single-cell level.
Mission Bio provides a portfolio of pre-designed panels covering the most commonly implicated genes in hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. For more flexibility, one can also create a custom panel based on current designs or from scratch for human, mouse or other genomes.
The Tapestri instrument employs a two-step microfluidic workflow. It first encapsulates single cells and performs cell barcoding. Next, barcoded cells will undergo targeted multiplex PCR and further processed to generate Illumina compatible libraries for next-generation sequencing.
Our Core currently hosts the Tapestri instrument. Service will be available later this year. Please feel free to contact us for details of service.
