1 Introduction Trans-differentiation, a process to allow for direct cell lineage conversion[1] can be achieved through forced expression of key transcription factors (TFs).[2, 3] Alternatively, SMs can be used to reprogram somatic cells, offering a genome integration free method for the development of regenerative therapies.[4-7] In our previous study,[8] we found that MEFs will be induced to trans-differentiate into a wide range of somatic lineages simultaneously by treatment with a...

It has come to our attention that in preparing the final version of this paper, we inadvertently misspelled the first name of an author Ziming Zhou as “Zimin Zhou”. In addition, we have made two errors in describing the reagents in the STAR Methods. First, under the subheading of “Synthesis of barcoded beads” in the Method Details section, the supplier of the magnetic beads coated with carboxyl groups should be Suzhou Knowledge & Benefit Sphere Tech. Co., Ltd.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technologies are poised to reshape the current cell-type classification system. However, a transcriptome-based single-cell atlas has not been achieved for complex mammalian systems. Here, we developed Microwell-seq, a high-throughput and low-cost scRNA-seq platform using simple, inexpensive devices. Using Microwell-seq, we analyzed more than 400,000 single cells covering all of the major mouse organs and constructed a basic scheme for a mouse cell atlas (MCA).
