splatPop – simulating population scale single-cell RNA sequencing data

Preprocess

fastq file format, UMI

  • Single-cell RNA-seq data - raw data to count matrix
    • Reads with different UMI are biological duplicates - each read should be counted.
    • Reads with the same UMI are are technical duplicates - the UMIs should be collapsed to be counted as a single read.
  • Read1 contains barcode (represents cells) and UMI (represents reads), Read2 contains transcript sequence.
  • One case from scruff vignette.

Cell ranger

  • Chromium Single Cell Gene Expression
  • PDX/Multiple Species data. Creating a Reference Package with cellranger mkref
  • pbmc3k. The data is saved in filtered_gene_bc_matrices/hg19 directory with 3 files, barcodes.tsv (45K), genes.tsv (798K) and matrix.mtx (27M).
  • Getting started with Cell Ranger by Dave Tang
  • Workshop from UC Davis
  • *10x genomics single-cell RNAseq analysis from SRA data using Cell Ranger and Seurat, bioinformaticsworkbook.org (useful)
  • how to get/make/find fastq file from cellranger?
  • filtered_feature_bc_matrix vs raw_feature_bc_matrix. "Filtered feature-barcode matrix" contains only detected cellular barcodes. <raw_feature_bc_matrix> contains mainly empty barcodes. That is, the difference is the number of cells.

    • cellranger mkfastq wraps Illumina's bcl2fastq to correctly demultiplex Chromium-prepared sequencing samples and to convert barcode and read data to FASTQ files.
    • cellranger count takes FASTQ files from cellranger mkfastq and performs alignment, filtering, and UMI counting. It uses the Chromium cellular barcodes to generate gene-cell matrices and perform clustering and gene expression analysis.
    • cellranger aggr aggregates results from cellranger count. How does cellranger aggr normalize for sequencing depth among multiple libraries?
    • cellranger reanalyze takes feature-barcode matrices produced by cellranger count or aggr and re-runs the dimensionality reduction, clustering, and gene expression algorithms.
    • The example code will generate an output directory with

  • Why do we have Barcodes with Counts that are not Called Cells? Ambient RNA, A barcode is called a cell if Total UMI count > M/10 is called a cell, M = Cell with maximum total UMI counts (99th percentile of the top N)
  • Reads are considered duplicated, if they map to the same gene and have the same UMI. Instead of counting reads we will count number of unique UMIs per gene.

  • 11,100 barcoded droplets
  • totals =colSums(mat). It has 877 unique values. Range is [0, 2344].
  • lower=100. Only cells satisfies the cutoff will be used in fitting the curve and find left.edge, right.edge, knee, inflection.
  • run.totals 877 values. Range [0, 2344]
  • run.rank 877 values. Range [1, 10900.5]
  • out = 11,100 x 3. Columns include rank, total, fitted
  • left.edge=68, rigth.edge=653. Associate with the x-axis. Relative to x, y.
  • knee=657, inflection=321 (inflection <- 10^(y[right.edge])). Used in the y-axis
  • In cellranger count, y-axis = UMI counts, x-axis = Barcodes.
  • In cellranger count, green points = cells, gray points = background.

estimateAmbience()

estimateAmbience().

This function obtains an estimate of the composition of the ambient pool of RNA based on the barcodes with total UMI counts less than or equal to "lower". The default approach is to assume that all barcodes with total counts less than or equal to "lower" are empty.

It returns a numeric vector of length equal to nrow(m), containing the estimated the transcript proportions in the ambient solution.

removeAmbience()

removeAmbience()

Estimate and remove the ambient profile from a count matrix, given pre-existing groupings of similar cells. This function is largely intended for plot beautification rather than real analysis.

It returns a numeric matrix-like object of the same dimensions as y, containing the counts after removing the ambient contamination. 

ngenes <- 1000
set.seed(1)
ambient <- runif(ngenes, 0, 0.1)  # length = 1000
cells <- c(runif(100) * 10, integer(900))  # length = 1000
y <- matrix(rpois(ngenes * 100, cells + ambient), nrow=ngenes)

# Pretending that all cells are in one group, in this example.
removed <- removeAmbience(y, ambient, groups=rep(1, ncol(y)))
dim(y)       # [1] 1000  100
dim(removed) # [1] 1000  100

Normalization

  • NormalizeData(). log1p(value/colSums[cell-idx] *scale_factor). The scale_factor is 10,000 by default and this gives a good range on the normalized values (at least on the pbmc data). The cpp source code of LogNorm() in preprocessing.R. 
    R> range(log1p(pbmc[['RNA']]@data[,1]/sum(pbmc[['RNA']]@data[,1]) * 10000))

Spike-in

  • RNA spike-in. An RNA spike-in is an RNA transcript of known sequence and quantity used to calibrate measurements in RNA hybridization assays, such as DNA microarray experiments, RT-qPCR, and RNA-Seq.
  • scran vignette.
    • We perform some cursory quality control to remove cells with low total counts or high spike-in percentages.
    • An alternative approach is to normalize based on the spike-in counts. The idea is that the same quantity of spike-in RNA was added to each cell prior to library preparation. Size factors are computed to scale the counts such that the total coverage of the spike-in transcripts is equal across cells.
    • If we have spike-ins, we can use them to fit the trend (variance-mean relationship) instead.
  • Spike-in gene concentrations are known, normalization model existing technical variation by utilizing the difference between these known values and the values observed after processing. "Normalization Methods on Single-Cell RNA-seq Data: An Empirical Survey". Lytal 2020

Normalization

  • Introduction to single-cell RNA-seq. If using a 3’ or 5’ droplet-based method, the length of the gene will not affect the analysis because only the 5’ or 3’ end of the transcript is sequenced. However, if using full-length sequencing, the transcript length should be accounted for.

Batch correction

  • Question: scRNA-seq and the batch effects. The biggest problem I found is, since you have no idea what's the real data suppose to be.
  • https://www.biostars.org/p/316204/
  • Over-correction can happen.
    • Single-cell RNA-seq Analysis on NIDAP - Tutorial Part 2 40:00 (nih network is required). Groups differ by a single experimental modification (eg a knockoff gene or cells of similar lineage used to determine differentiation pattern). However batch correction is necessary in cases such as spike-in cells where we expect these cells should be clustered together.
  • Mutual nearest neighbors/MNN. Batch effects in single-cell RNA-sequencing data are corrected by matching mutual nearest neighbors Haghverdi 2018...
    • One assumption is the batch effect is almost orthogonal to the biological subspace. It also assumes the batch effect variation in much smaller than the biological effect variation between different cell types.
    • It is preferable to perform DE analyses using the uncorrected expression values with blocking on the batch, as discussed in Section 11.4... We suggest limiting the use of per-gene corrected values to visualization, e.g., when coloring points on a t-SNE plot by per-cell expression.
    • Sadly the R code of the paper does not have the file ('MAP2.csv') and the code does not work anymore (e.g. mnnCorrect() does not have $angles component). Check out the mnnpy module which still has an option to return angles.
  • SMNN can eliminate the overcorrection between different cell types & allow that batch effects are non-orthogonal to the biological differences. github source code. Note that the package is only available on github and it depends on the python mnnpy module.

    • It seems the goal is to use the CNV data to cluster cells... All cells that clustered together with spiked in controls were labeled "nontumor" whereas the remaining clusters were labels as 'tumor'.
    • 使用inferCNV分析单细胞转录组中拷贝数变异. Or follow the help of plot_cnv(), infercnv::run()... inferCNV会输出一个 "map_metadata_from_infercnv.txt" (I don't see it) 文件用于记录每个细胞的元信息，所有信息都可以从该文件中进行提取。或者使用infercnv::add_to_seurat将信息直接增加到原来的seurat对象中。
    • CNS图表复现13—使用inferCNV来区分肿瘤细胞的恶性与否. 因为10X技术出来的单个细胞的reads数量太少，检测到的基因数量太少，但是inferCNV更新后有一个参数是cutoff ，就很清楚的指出来了：cutoff=1 works well for Smart-seq2, and cutoff=0.1 works well for 10x Genomics 说明它应用于10X单细胞转录组数据是没有问题的。
