Can Scirpy be used for the analysis of regular RNA-seq sequencing data?
Hello! This tool is excellent. Currently, I have a set of regular RNA-seq sequencing data, and I would like to know if it can be used to analyze such data. thank you
Hi,
the short answer is: No, the scirpy receptor model is currently inherently limited to at most two pairs of receptors per cell.
The longer answer: As a workaround, you could represent each individual alpha or beta chain as an individual cell. But that way you will likely run into scalability issues very soon.
That said, the new data structure released with v0.13 could already represent bulk data and other receptor models. As we work on scalability issues, bulk analysis might become a supported option at some point in the future.
