Overview
Understanding the intricacies of the immune system is crucial to elucidating roles of immune cells in health and disease. This requires profiling T- and B-cell receptors (TCRs and BCRs), key determinants of adaptive immunity. The next generation of BD Rhapsody™ TCR/BCR Multiomic Assays reveal immune repertoire richness with great sensitivity alongside simultaneous single-cell gene and protein expression analyses.
Features
Validated on our new Enhanced Cell Capture Beads V3, BD Rhapsody™ TCR/BCR Next Multiomic Assays enable a highly sensitive analysis of full-length TCR/BCR repertoires with robust workflows for human and mouse. Key features include:
- Superior full-length TCR and BCR pairing metrics
- Multiomics-enabled for simultaneous immune profiling alongside protein and gene expression analyses in the same cell
- Compatibility with preserved cells and BD® OMICS-Guard Sample Preservation Buffer
- Intuitive data analysis pipeline that provides unbiased insights about the biology of your samples

Applications
A single workflow to identify and analyze T and B cell clonotypes with high sensitivity alongside single-cell whole transcriptome or targeted mRNA expression and protein analyses.
In this study, we simultaneously analyzed TCR, BCR, whole transcriptome gene expression as well as cell surface proteins using the BD® AbSeq Immune Discovery Panel in primary PBMCs. In total, 2,380 complete phenotypes were detected from 6,798 putative cells (out of 7,292 input cells).
Step 1:
Using both protein and gene expression, a UMAP plot was generated, and protein markers were used to identify cell populations.
Step 2:
An unsupervised analysis (phenograph) was performed on CD8+ cells where 11 clusters were identified.
Step 3:
Frequencies of unique clonotypes within CD8+ were reported.
Step 4:
The top 5 clonotypes were overlaid on the UMAP plot and identified within phenograph clusters.
Step 5:
Using WTA and AbSeq information, differential gene and protein expression analysis of cells with the most frequent clonotype vs the rest of the population were performed.
Step 6:
Cell IDs and chain information were obtained from the pipeline output files and VDJ and C gene information were determined for the clonotype of interest.
