Figure Lengend Snippet: High-dimensional single-cell protein analysis of MHV68 infection by CyTOF. (A) 3T12 fibroblasts were either mock or MHV68-infected with WT MHV68.LANAβlac (MOI=0.5), with indicated populations FACS purified according to LANA::β-lactamase expression at 16 hours pi. (B) PhenoGraph analysis of mock, LANA- and LANA+ cells subjected to CyTOF analysis and visualized by tSNE-based dimensionality reduction identified 14 cell clusters (colored by cluster ID). (C) Comparison of the frequency (left) and protein expression profile (right) of PhenoGraph-defined clusters in LANA- and LANA+ samples. Clusters (in rows), ranked from those exclusively in LANA- samples (top) to those exclusively in LANA+ samples (bottom); asterisks indicate clusters statistically significantly different between conditions, defined by unpaired t-test corrected for multiple comparisons using the Holm-Sidak method, p<0.05. Data show mean ± SEM with individual symbols indicating individual sample values (n=4 per group). Relative protein expression for each cluster (right panel) is indicated by heatmap intensity, with protein markers divded by functional categories. (D) tSNE plot of LANA- and LANA+ cells colored according to LANA- and LANA+ exclusivity (left), vRCA expression (middle), and pH2AX expression (right panel). Red and blue lines identify events exclusive to LANA+ or LANA- clusters (left panel). Ruler defines range of expression with values calculated using the equation arcsinh (x/5) where x is raw expression value. Live, DNA+ cells ( 191 Ir+ 193 Ir+ 195 Pt-) were imported into PhenoGraph with 9,162 events total analyzed (1,018 events from each sample; n=1, mock, n=4 each for LANA+ and LANA- samples), clustered on 9 cell surface proteins (vRCA, BST2, CD9, CD29, CD44, CD63, Ly6A/E, Ly6C, and MHCI). See also Figure S1.
