1. A method of preparing and sequencing a nucleic acid library for single-cell transcriptome analysis, the method comprising:
(a) fixing a plurality of cells to immobilize or hold in place components of the cells;
(b) generating a plurality of tagged cDNA molecules from the transcriptome of each cell of the plurality of fixed cells,
wherein the plurality of tagged cDNA molecules generated from the transcriptome of each cell corresponds to the transcriptome of the cell; and
wherein each tagged cDNA molecule of the plurality of tagged cDNA molecules comprises a barcode sequence corresponding to the cell of origin of the tagged cDNA molecule;
(c) amplifying the plurality of tagged cDNA molecules generated from the transcriptome of each cell;
(d) sequencing the amplified tagged cDNA molecules; and
(e) mapping the sequencing reads obtained in (d) to a reference genome.
