Single-cell ATAC-seq standard processing with SnapATAC2
Abstract
Single-cell Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (scATAC-seq) analysis is a method to decipher the chromatin states of the analyzed cells. In general, genes are only expressed in accessible (i.e. "open") chromatin and not in closed chromatin.
About This Material
This is a Hands-on Tutorial from the GTN which is usable either for individual self-study, or as a teaching material in a classroom.
Questions this will address
- What does ATAC-seq data tell us about the cell?
- Which steps are necessary to cluster the cells of single-cell ATAC-seq data?
- Why is dimension reduction important for the analysis of single-cell data?
Learning Objectives
- Learn how single-cell ATAC-seq data is processed
- Create a count-matrix from a 10X fragment file
- Perform filtering, dimension reduction and clustering on AnnData matrices
- Generate and filter a cell-by-gene matrix
- Identify marker genes for the clusters and annotate the cell types
