Update QC pipeline for 10xGenomics single nuclei RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) #418

Closed pjbriggs closed 4 years ago

pjbriggs commented 5 years ago

The QC pipeline needs to be updated to handle single nuclei (sc)RNA-seq from 10xGenomics data.

Fastq generation should be the same as for scRNA-seq data so the changes will be in the QC pipeline, specifically the single library analyses will need a special "pre-mRNA" reference instead of the standard ones from 10xGenomics. The pre-mRNA references need to generated manually using cellranger mkref:
