Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) lie at the top of the differentiation hierarchy. Although HSC and their immediate downstream, multipotent progenitors (MPP) have full multilineage differentiation capacity, only long-term (LT-) HSC has the capacity of long-term self-renewal. The heterogeneity within the HSC population is gradually acknowledged with the development of single-cell RNA sequencing and lineage tracing technologies. Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulations play important roles in controlling the differentiation and self-renewal capacity within HSC population. Here we report a dataset comprising short- and long-read RNA sequencing for mouse long- and short-term HSC and MPP at bulk and single-cell levels. We demonstrate that integrating short- and long-read sequencing can facilitate the identification and quantification of known and unannotated isoforms. Thus, this dataset provides a groundwork for comprehensive and comparative studies on transcriptional diversity and heterogeneity within different HSC cell types.
