The advent of single-cell RNA sequencing has revealed significant transcriptional heterogeneity in cancer, but its relationship to genomic heterogeneity remains unclear. Focusing on acute myeloid leukemia samples, the authors describe a general approach for linking mutation-containing cells to their transcriptional phenotypes using single-cell RNA sequencing data.
