RNA-seq

RNA-seq

RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases.
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Ribosome Profiling

Ribosome Profiling

Ribosome profiling or ribo-sequencing is a deep sequencing technique that produces a snapshot of active translation in a cell. It selectively sequences the mRNAs protected by ribosomes to get an insight into a cell’s translation landscape at any given point in time.
Applications of ribosome profiling
Ribosome profiling has many applications, including in vivo monitoring of translation inside a particular organ or tissue type and quantifying new protein synthesis levels.
The technique...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

We developed shared-private Variational Inference via Product of Experts with Supervision (spVIPES), a novel probabilistic framework for analyzing unpaired single-cell RNA sequencing data. spVIPES effectively disentangles shared and private cellular features across datasets with nonmatching features, improving cell-type identification.

Background:

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) reveals cellular heterogeneity.
Existing batch correction methods often require matching features or paired samples.
Analyzing diverse scRNA-seq datasets with nonmatching features remains challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

To present shared-private Variational Inference via Product of Experts with Supervision (spVIPES), a probabilistic framework.
To decompose unpaired scRNA-seq datasets with nonmatching features into shared and private components.
To enable accurate cell-type identification across datasets lacking matching features.

Main Methods:

Developed a probabilistic latent variable model separating dataset-specific (private) from conserved (shared) cellular features.
Implemented supervised and unsupervised variants of spVIPES.
Utilized optimal transport for cell correspondence in the unsupervised variant.

Main Results:

spVIPES effectively disentangles dataset-specific and conserved cellular features.
Outperformed state-of-the-art methods in batch correction.
Achieved more accurate cell-type identification across datasets with nonmatching features.

Conclusions:

spVIPES provides a robust framework for analyzing diverse scRNA-seq data.
The method successfully addresses limitations of existing batch correction techniques.
spVIPES enhances cross-dataset cell-type identification, particularly for unpaired data with nonmatching features.
