Learn MoreSkeletal muscle is a heterogeneous tissue. Individual myofibers that make up the contractile muscle tissue exhibit variation in their metabolic and contractile properties. Although there are biochemical and histological assays to study myofiber heterogeneity, methods to analyze the transcriptomes of individual myofibers are lacking.We have developed single myofiber RNA-Seq (smfRNA-Seq) to analyze the whole transcriptome of an individual myofiber by combining single fiber isolation with Switching Mechanisms at 5 end of RNA Template (SMART) technology. Our method provides high-resolution genome wide expression profiles of single myofibers. This method will be useful to study developmental and age-related dynamics in the composition of skeletal muscle.
