Single-cell RNAseq can struggle to capture cellular heterogeneity due to the relatively low expression of biologically meaningful transcripts. Here the authors present an approach called scCLEAN, which uses CRISPR/Cas9 to target and remove certain ubiquitous transcripts, thereby enhancing the detection of low-abundance transcripts.
