Introduction

TGAC/eisca is a bioinformatics pipeline that perform analysis for single-cell RNA-seq data. The pipeline is built using Nextflow and processes (implemented and to be implemented) are as follows:

  • Primary analysis
    • FastQC - Raw read QC
    • Kallisto & Bustools - Mapping & quantification by Kallisto & Bustools
    • Salmon Alevin - Mapping & quantification by Salmon Alevin
    • STARsolo - Mapping & quantification by STAR
  • Secondary analysis
    • QC & cell filtering - cell filtering and QC on raw data and filtered data
    • Clustering analysis - single-cell clustering analysis
    • Merging/integration of samples
  • Tertiary analysis
    • Cell type annotation (to be implemented)
    • Differential expression analysis (to be implemented)
    • Trajectory & pseudotime analysis (to be implemented)
    • Other downstream analyses (to be implemented)
  • Pipeline reporting
    • Analysis report - Single-ell Analysis Report.
    • MultiQC - Aggregate report describing results and QC for tools registered in nf-core
    • Pipeline information - Report metrics generated during the workflow execution

Usage

Note

If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to this page on how to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to test your setup with -profile test before running the workflow on actual data.

First, prepare a samplesheet with your input data that looks as follows:

samplesheet.csv:

sample,fastq_1,fastq_2
pbmc8k,pbmc8k_S1_L007_R1_001.fastq.gz,pbmc8k_S1_L007_R2_001.fastq.gz
pbmc8k,pbmc8k_S1_L008_R1_001.fastq.gz,pbmc8k_S1_L008_R2_001.fastq.gz
pbmc5k,pbmc5k_S1_L003_R1_001.fastq.gz,pbmc5k_S1_L003_R2_001.fastq.gz

Each row represents a fastq file (single-end) or a pair of fastq files (paired end).

Now, you can run the pipeline using:

nextflow run TGAC/eisca \
   -profile <docker/singularity/.../institute> \
   --input samplesheet.csv \
   --genome_fasta GRCm38.p6.genome.chr19.fa \
   --gtf gencode.vM19.annotation.chr19.gtf \
   --protocol 10XV2 \
   --aligner <alevin/kallisto/star/cellranger/universc> \
   --outdir <OUTDIR>

Warning

Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI or Nextflow -params-file option. Custom config files including those provided by the -c Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration except for parameters; see docs.

For more details and further functionality, please refer to the usage documentation.

Pipeline output

To see the results of an example test run with a full size dataset refer to the results tab on the nf-core website pipeline page. For more details about the output files and reports, please refer to the output documentation.
