Whole transcriptome amplification methods for single cell sequencing. a Oligo dT-anchor approach. mRNA is reverse-transcribed with an oligo-dT anchored primer, and poly(A) is added to the 3′ end of the first-strand cDNA to synthesize the second strand cDNA. b Template-switching approach. mRNA is reverse-transcribed by Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMLV) reverse transcriptase, and a few non-templated C nucleotides are added to the 3′ end of the first-strand cDNA to synthesize the second strand cDNA
