Methods: Gokce et al 2016

Cell-types: All

Brain regions: Striatum

Techniques: Genetic labeling of medium spiny neurons (D1-tdTomato (tdTom)/D2-GFP) and astrocytes (Aldh1l1-GFP mice), single-cell RNAseq with FACS-scRNA-seq; selection free sampling with microfluidic single-cell RNAseq. 1,208 single-cells were assigned to 10 cell-type (metacell) clusters (e.g. Astro).

Details of mice: Male mice; C57Bl/6 background; 5- to 7-week-old

Data processing for BrainPalmSeq: Single-cell data were downloaded from GEO with accession ID GSE82187 (file GSE82187_cast_all_forGEO.csv). Counts were log normalized by first scaling to a sum of 10,000 per cell before calculating log2(scaled_counts+1). Averages were then performed by cell type for each gene. Genes associated with palmitoylation were selected in order to create the heatmaps.

Heatmap units: mean log2(counts per 10,000 + 1)
