Direct isolation of single cells from living brains of Drosophila melanogaster without dissociation for transcriptome analysis

Summary: Here, we describe a protocol to remove single identified cells directly from Drosophila living brains and analyze their transcriptome. We detail the steps to harvest fluorescent cells using a capillary under epifluorescence and transmitted light to avoid contamination. We then outline the p...
