Abstract
Mosaic analysis with double markers (MADM) technology enables the generation of genetic mosaic tissue in mice and high-resolution phenotyping at the individual cell level. Here, we present a protocol for isolating MADM-labeled cells with high yield for downstream molecular analyses using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). We describe steps for generating MADM-labeled mice, perfusion, single-cell suspension, and debris removal. We then detail procedures for cell sorting by FACS and downstream analysis. This protocol is suitable for embryonic to adult mice. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Contreras et al. (2021).1.
