GeoMx® Whole Transcriptome Atlases

Spatial Resolution for Any Target
The GeoMx® Whole Transcriptome Atlas (WTA) provides an unbiased, spatial view of all proteincoding genes by leveraging the power of NGS. Whether you are mapping the architecture of tissue or exploring the regulation of morphological features, WTA delivers the highest sensitivity for spatial whole transcriptomics on FFPE tissues.
Highlights
Whole transcriptome coverage with probes specific to protein coding mRNA sequences
  1. Superior sensitivity to detect 1000s of unique human and mouse genes in n < 50 μm regions
  2. Robust performance across sample types including FFPE with high concordance with RNA-seq and RNAscope™
  3. Map single cell RNA-seq populations to their tissue location
  4. Integrated Illumina library prep protocols and streamlined NGS analysis pipelines
  5. Flexibility to customize with up to 60 additional targets to assay non-coding RNA, synthetic DNA or exogenous genes
  6. Visualization and statistical analysis using GeoMx® Data Suite and bioinformatics toolset
Discover a new way to look at biology
The GeoMx® Whole Transcriptome Atlas delivers the maximum amount of sensitivity and confidence in each transcript through its unique probe architecture. The WTA profiles over 18,000 protein-coding human genes and 21,000+ protein coding mouse genes.Along with a high specificity for their target molecules, DSP RNA probes are screened for a myriad of factors including melting temperature, GC content, off target hits, and repetitive sequences. Each probe is assigned a unique DSP barcode for downstream molecular counting on an Illumina sequencer. The targeted nature of WTA avoids the many pitfalls of poly(A) pulldown by delivering increased sensitivity even in heavily degraded tissues such as FFPE. With GeoMx® WTA, researchers can explore pathways across the whole transcriptome in user defined regions of interest.

The Human WTA covers over 18,000 protein-coding genes cross-referenced with the HUGO and NCBI RefSeq databases.

GeoMx® RNA Panel for Immuno-Oncology

The GeoMx® Immune Pathways panel is designed for comprehensive profiling of the tumor, tumor microenvironment, and tumor immune status. Profile up to 96 curated RNA targets with spatial resolution from a single tissue section using the GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP).
GeoMx® RNA Assay Design
Designed to profile up to 96 targets simultaneously with spatial resolution, the Immune Pathways Core contains 84 targets plus controls designed for broad coverage of the tumor and tumor microenvironment. Up to 10 custom targets with 2 additional controls can be added to select the content most relevant to your research. GeoMx® RNA assays contain in situ hybridization (ISH) probes conjugated to unique DNA indexing-oligonucleotides via a UV-photocleavable linker. After region of interest (ROI) selection on GeoMx® DSP and UV cleavage of the oligonucleotides, each DNA oligonucleotide is recognized by a unique reporter probe that contains a fluorescent barcode. Reporter probes are imaged and counted by the nCounter® Analysis System to provide a direct, digital readout of spatially resolved RNA expression.

Curated Content for Immuno-Oncology
The GeoMx® Immune Pathways panel is designed to profile key aspects of tumor and tumor microenvironment biology.
  • Profile the global immune response
  • Assess microenvironment immune activity

GeoMx® TCR Profiling Add-On

Gene Expression Add-On to HuWTA or CTA
Add the ability to spatially profile expression of different T Cell Receptor (TCR) Variable and Joining regions to your GeoMx® DSP Human Whole Transcriptome Atlas (HuWTA) or Cancer Transcriptome Atlas (CTA) assay. Spatially quantify changes in TCR diversity in response to cancer, infectious disease, autoimmunity, organ rejection, and therapeutic treatment within distinct tissue compartments or cell type populations within tissue sections.
