## Step 1: GEM Generation & Barcoding
GEMs are generated by combining barcoded Gel Beads, a Master Mix containing cells, and Partitioning Oil B onto GEM-X 3' Chip. To achieve single cell resolution, cells are delivered at a limiting dilution, such that the majority (~90-99%) of generated GEMs contain no cell, while the remainders largely contain a sing...
## GEM-X Chip Workflow

Immediately following GEM generation, the Gel Bead is dissolved, primers are released, and any copartitioned cell is lysed. Primers containing an Illumina TruSeq Read 1 (read 1 sequencing primer, Read 1T), 16 nt 10x Barcode, 12 nt unique molecular identifier (UMI), and 30 nt poly(dT) sequence are mixed with both the ce...
Incubation of the GEMs produces barcoded, full-length cDNA from polyadenylated mRNA.

## Step 2: Post GEM-RT Cleanup &amp; cDNA Amplification
After incubation, GEMs are broken and pooled fractions are recovered. Silane magnetic beads are used to purify the first-strand cDNA from the post GEM-RT reaction mixture, which includes leftover biochemical reagents and primers. Barcoded, full-length cDNA is amplified via PCR to generate sufficient mass for library co...

## Step 3: 3' Gene Expression Library Construction
Enzymatic fragmentation and size selection are used to optimize the cDNA amplicon size. P5 and P7 adaptors, i7 and i5 sample indexes, and TruSeq Read 2 (read 2 primer sequence) are added via End Repair, A-tailing, Adaptor Ligation, and PCR. The final libraries contain the P5 and P7 primers used in Illumina amplificat...

## Sequencing
A Chromium Single Cell 3' Gene Expression Dual Index library comprises standard Illumina paired-end constructs which begin and end with P5 and P7. The 16 bp 10x Barcode and 12 bp UMI are encoded in Read 1, while Read 2 is used to sequence the cDNA fragment. i7 and i5 index sequences are incorporated as the sample index...
Illumina sequencer compatibility, sample indices, library loading and pooling for sequencing are summarized in the sequencing chapter.
