ScPower accelerates and optimizes the design of multi-sample single cell transcriptomic studies

ABSTRACT: Single cell RNA-seq has revolutionized transcriptomics by providing cell type resolution for differential gene expression and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses. However, efficient power analysis methods for single cell data and inter-individual comparisons are lacking. Here, we present scPower; a statistical framework for the design and power analysis of multi-sample single cell transcriptomic experiments. We modelled the relationship between sample size, the number of cells per individual, sequencing depth, and the power of detecting differentially expressed genes within cell types. We systematically evaluated these optimal parameter combinations for several single cell profiling platforms, and generated broad recommendations. In general, shallow sequencing of high numbers of cells leads to higher overall power than deep sequencing of fewer cells. The model, including priors, is implemented as an R package and is accessible as a web tool. scPower is a highly customizable tool that experimentalists can use to quickly compare a multitude of experimental designs and optimize for a limited budget.

Detecting cell-of-origin and cancer-specific methylation features of cell-free DNA from Nanopore sequencing

Project description:The Oxford Nanopore (ONT) platform provides portable and rapid genome sequencing, and its ability to natively profile DNA methylation without complex sample processing is attractive for clinical sequencing. We recently demonstrated ONT shallow whole-genome sequencing to detect copy number alterations (CNA) from the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) of cancer patients. Here, we show that cell-type and cancer-specific methylation changes can also be detected, as well as cancer-associated fragmentation signatures. This feasibility study suggests that ONT shallow WGS could be a powerful tool for liquid biopsy, especially real-time medical applications.

Quartz-Seq2: a high-throughput single-cell RNA-sequencing method that effectively uses limited sequence reads

Project description:High-throughput single-cell RNA-seq methods assign limited unique molecular identifier (UMI) counts as gene expression values to single cells from shallow sequence reads and detect limited gene counts. We thus developed a high-throughput single-cell RNA-seq method, Quartz-Seq2, to overcome these issues. Our improvements in several of the reaction steps of Quartz-Seq2 allow us to effectively convert initial reads to UMI counts (at a rate of 30%–50%). To demonstrate the power of Quartz-Seq2, we analyzed transcriptomes from a cell population of in vitro embryonic stem cells and an in vivo stromal vascular fraction with a limited number of sequence reads.

Single-cell copy number analysis in melanoma

Project description:We performed shallow single-cell copy number analysis across 1,475 cells from a melanoma COLO829 line, to resolve overall tumor complexity and clonality. We identified at least four major sub-clones by discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC). Re-analysis of previous spectral karyotyping data recapitulated these sub-clone hallmark features and explains why previous experiments generated conflicting results. Overall, our results demonstrate how single cell sequencing can uncover significant hidden insights in a melanoma sample.

Benchmarking Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Protocols for Cell Atlas Projects (10 X V3)

Project description:Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is the leading technique for charting the molecular properties of individual cells. The latest methods are scalable to thousands of cells, enabling in- depth characterization of sample composition without prior knowledge. However, there are important differences between scRNA-seq techniques, and it remains unclear which are the most suitable protocols for drawing cell atlases of tissues, organs and organisms. We have generated benchmark datasets to systematically evaluate techniques in terms of their power to comprehensively describe cell types and states. We performed a multi-center study comparing 13 commonly used single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq protocols using a highly heterogeneous reference sample resource. Comparative and integrative analysis at cell type and state level revealed marked differences in protocol performance, highlighting a series of key features for cell atlas projects. These should be considered when defining guidelines and standards for international consortia, such as the Human Cell Atlas project.
