Severe npm1a downregulation in gata2a?/? HSPCs at 7 mpf (A) FACS gating strategy to analyze/isolate cd41:GFPlow HSPCs from 7 mpf adults. L, lymphoid cells; P, progenitor cells. (B) Two cd41:GFP and two cd41:GFP;gata2a?/? adults at 7 mpf and sorted live CD41:GFPlow cell analysis of GFPhigh and GFPlow fractions. GFPhigh: p = 0.0783, GFPlow: p = 0.0409, determined using a two-tailed unpaired t test. (C) scRNA-seq and tSNE clustering of WT and gata2a?/? HSPCs. We chose cells with at least 1,000 UMI counts (106 WT and 72 gata2a?/? cells) and then exported extracted barcoded reads to be retained for further analysis in cell ranger/Loupe/R. (D) Volcano plots of log2 FC vs. ?log10(p value). Full list of differentially expressed genes in Table S4. (E) Violin plot (each dot represents a single cell) of npm1a, lyz, lect2l, hbba2, and hbaa2 expression in WT and gata2a?/? HSPCs. gata2a?/? vs. WT: npm1a; p = 1.06E?16. (F) Imaging schematic. lyz: p = 1.15E?29; lect2l: p = 8.76E?30; hbba2: p = 5.3E?15; hbaa2: p = 1.73E?13. (G) Imaging of the caudal haematopoietic tissue (CHT) region of Tg(Runx1p2:Citrine)+ embryos at 48 hpf. Scale bar, 100 ?m. (H) Quantification. Error bars are mean with 95% confidence interval (CI). DMSO: n = 12 (biological replicates), NPM1i: n = 11 (biological replicates). ????p < 0.0001, determined using a Mann-Whitney test. See also Tables S4, S7, and S8.
