@dagarfield, thank you for the new term.
Do you have a reference/resource (doi, PMID, etc) that supports the text definition?
Could you also confirm that the appropriate parent term is EFO:0030023 'processed matrix generation' and not EFO:0030053 'pseudo-bulk aggregation of single-cell expression data'?
Hi! I had copied the EFO from another request entry, but would agree that EFO:0030053
seems to fit better.
I do not have a reference....but welcome any edits :)
@dagarfield, thank you for clarifying.
1 - Can you confirm the following rewording of the text definition is accurate?
"A processed matrix generation method that involves combining (binary or quantitative) single-cell ATAC seq data from multiple cells within the same biological sample and/or cell types, depending on the intended downstream values. Ideally, aggregation is done within predefined regions of the genome e.g., using called peaks or tiles across the genome. The aggregated profiles can then be used in the same manner as bulk ATAC-seq or DNase-seq data."
2- I think this concept was mentioned here: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-26530-2 Can you confirm? If so, I will add as a reference.
3- @zoependlington, would it be appropriate to add axiom has_participant some scATAC-seq
?
@dagarfield, following up on this. Can you kindly provide a reference or use case for this term so I can validate the definition?
Hi! Use case is easy -- we generate these sorts of datasets routinely as part of computational modeling of single-cell ATAC-seq data. The reference you provide works, but we can also go ahead and maybe cite our 2018 paper which, to my knowledge, is the first applied case of pseduo-bulk scATAC-seq data to facilitate comparisons between traditional DNase/ATAC data and single-cell studies: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29539636/
Thank you for the feedback, @dagarfield. The following will be added to EFO. Kindly advise if additional edits are required.

@dagarfield, the following has been added to EFO and should be available in the next release:

Textual definition
This involves combining (binary or quantitative) single-cell ATAC seq data from multiple cells within the same biological sample and/or cell types, depending on the intended downstream values. Aggregation should be done within pre-defined regions of the genome (e.g. called Peaks or tiles across the genome) The aggregated profiles can then be used in the same manner as bulk ATAC-seq or DNase data)
