Single-cell RNA-Seq Analysis of Retinal Development Identifies NFI Factors as Regulating Mitotic Exit and Late-Born Cell Specification

Single cell RNA sequencing using either an adapted Smart-seq2 protocol on Chx10-GFP (+) retinal progenitor cells; 10x Genomics Chromium Single Cell system across 10 timepoints of mouse retinal development to examine retinal progenitor cell heterogeneity across retinal development and global changes in gene expression from early retinal neuroepithelial cells through specification and differentiation of retinal cell types; 10X Genomics Chromium Single Cell on P14 Nfia/b/x het control or Nfia/b/x tCKO (Chx10-Cre-GFP) retinas Overall design: Examination of transcript expression within 120,840 cells across 10 developmental time-points (14 experiments) via 10x Genomics and 864 cells via an adapted Smart-Seq2 protocol; Characterization of Nfia/b/x mutant phenotypes using single-cell RNA-seq
