Hello,
The methods section in the paper “Connecting single-cell transcriptomes to projectomes in mouse visual cortex" states that libraries were sequenced as “fifty-base-pair paired-end reads.” However, when downloading the raw FASTQ files from the NeMO archive (link), I can only find R1 files — no R2 files appear to be available for these samples.
I wanted to check on a couple of possibilities:
-
Were the R2 files inadvertently omitted from the repository upload?
-
Or was this particular batch actually sequenced as single-end, with the methods text referring to the general protocol rather than this specific dataset?
Thanks so much in advance.
