ArgenTag announced a co‑marketing and compatibility agreement with Pacific Biosciences, confirming ArgenTag’s single‑cell long‑read RNA library kit works with PacBio’s Kinnex RNA kits and HiFi sequencing. The partnership positions long‑read isoform sequencing at single‑cell resolution as a more accessible workflow for researchers, ArgenTag said in company commentary and industry coverage. ArgenTag’s microfluidic, gravity‑based partitioning chip and bead barcoding combine with PacBio’s long‑read chemistry to capture full‑length isoform diversity, alternative splicing, and gene fusions typically missed by short‑read single‑cell platforms. The integration removes the need for capital‑intensive cell partitioners and expands the ability to study isoform‑level biology in complex tissues. The deal targets biomarker discovery, transcriptomic clarity for drug development, and new paths for translational research where isoform resolution matters.
