Title A cell atlas of the adult Drosophila midgut
Organism Drosophila melanogaster
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Drosophila guts were dissociated to single cells as previously described (Dutta et al., 2015) with a few modifications. Guts were dissected from 7-day old adult esg-sfGFP/+, pros- Gal4>RFP/+ females. After pulling out the gut, the crop and midgut/hindgut junction (where the Malpighian tubules branch out of the gut) and Malpighian tubules were removed. Five flies at a time were dissected and immediately transferred into cold PBS containing 1% BSA to avoid exposing the midgut tissue to room temperature for a long period of time. Once 40 guts were dissected, they were transferred to a dissection plate and chopped into small pieces using a razor blade. These small fragments were immediately transferred to an eppendorf tube containing 400 ul of 1 mg/ml elastase/PBS solution (Sigma E0258) and incubated on a shaker at 27 ̊C for 30 min. 1% of BSA in PBS (final concentration) was used to stop the digestion reaction and prevent cells from aggregating. The cell suspension was passed through 100 um and then a 40 um cell strainer and loaded on the top of Optiprep with density gradient 1.12 g/ml. Viable cells were isolated from the top layer of the sample after centrifugation at 800xg for 20 min. Cell viability and number were assessed by 0.4% trypan blue and hemocytometer.
