Cell motility influences microfluidics capturing in scRNA-seq

Lara López-Escobar, Ana M. Nascimento, Tomás Gomes, Luís Graça, Luísa M. Figueiredo

This study shows that cooling motile Trypanosoma brucei parasites before scRNA-seq improves encapsulation efficiency and reduces transcriptomic bias.

m6A landscape is more pervasive when Trypanosoma brucei exits the cell cycle

Lúcia Serra, Sara Silva Pereira, Idálio J. Viegas, Henrique Machado, Lara López-Escobar, Luísa M. Figueiredo

This study identifies stage-specific m6A methylation patterns in Trypanosoma brucei across its life cycle, showing increased prevalence in the quiescent stumpy form.
