Some tools available to bulk RNA-Seq are also applied to single cell analysis, however to face the specificity of this technique new algorithms were developed. CEL-Seq [114] single-cell RNA-Seq by multiplexed linear amplification. Drop-Seq [115] Highly Parallel Genome-wide Expression Profiling of Individual Cells Using Nanoliter Droplets.
[114] [115] The second initiative, focused on Sickle-cell disease (SCD), resulted in passage of the National Sickle Cell Anemia Control Act in May 1972.

By way of analogy, the allele (a particular version of a gene) which causes sickle cell disease when two copies are present, also confers an adaptive advantage when one copy is present by providing resistance to malaria with non-symptomatic sickle cell trait—which is known as "heterozygote advantage".
