FAQPage Schema
How do I perform single-cell RNA-seq analysis from raw data to cell type annotation?

Single-cell RNA-seq analysis involves quality control, normalization, dimensionality reduction via PCA and UMAP, Leiden clustering, and marker gene identification to annotate cell types.

What is the standard workflow for scRNA-seq clustering and dimensionality reduction?

The standard scRNA-seq workflow uses PCA for initial dimensionality reduction, followed by UMAP for visualization, and applies Leiden clustering to identify distinct cellular populations.

Can I use scanpy to process h5ad files for identifying marker genes?

Yes, you can process h5ad files to perform comprehensive single-cell RNA-seq analysis, which includes identifying marker genes and generating publication-quality visualizations.

Does single-cell RNA-seq analysis require specific input formats for quality control?

Single-cell RNA-seq analysis supports various input formats, with h5ad being standard, and applies quality control and normalization steps to prepare data for downstream clustering.

What is the best way to visualize cellular heterogeneity in scRNA-seq data?

To visualize cellular heterogeneity in scRNA-seq data, apply UMAP for dimensionality reduction and generate publication-quality figures that highlight distinct cell populations and marker genes.
