10x Chromium 5' Immune Profiling Feature Barcoding

As the technology keeps developing, there are quite a few different kits now on the 10x Genomics website. I recommend you contact them to choose the appropriate kit for your application. In this page, the v2 version of The Chromium Single Cell 5' Immune Profiling Feature Barcoding is shown here. The workflow is based on their RevA version of the user guide. This kit can profile gene expression (5'), VDJ of BCR and TCR and surface protein. If you only need one of them, the basic principle is the same. All three layers of information is shown here to give an overview. The 5' kit is similar to the 3' kit. Instead of using barcoded RT primers on the beads, the 5' kit uses the same RT primer, but with barcoded Template Switching Oligos (TSO) on their gel beads. The antibody against surface proteins has a barcoded oligo that is reverse complement to the TSO on the beads, which will also be captured inside the droplet. Conceptually, this kit is very similar to STRT-seq. The 16-bp cell barcodes are the same as the 3' Gene Expression kit v2, and you can download from here: 737K-august-2016.txt.gz. This file is copied from Cell Ranger (using Cell Ranger v2.1.0 as an example) /path/to/cellranger-2.1.0/cellranger-cs/2.1.0/tenkit/lib/python/tenkit/barcodes.

For the VDJ part, the kit basically uses a combination of loci specific (VDJ of B or T cells) primer mix to perform a nested PCR to get the information of VDJ. The sequence of those loci specific primer mix can be found in the user guide. If you blat/map them, you will see they anneal to the constant region of the genes. I'm not an expert on this, so I'm not able to comment on the details of these primers.

Around 2023-2024, the v3 chemistry was introduced. It has better cell recovery and sensitivity (number of detected genes per cell and TRA/TRB UMI counts) compared to v1 and v2. See their product sheet for a more detailed overview. The cell barcodes have changed in the v3 chemistry, and the file with all 16-bp cell barcodes can be found here: 3M-5pgex-jan-2023.txt.gz. This file is copied from Cell Ranger (using Cell Ranger v8.0.1 as an example) /path/to/cellranger-8.0.1/lib/python/cellranger/barcodes/. The library structure of 5' v3 is exactly the same as 5' v1 and v2, except that the UMI is 10-bp long in v1 and v2 but 12-bp in v3.
