Single-cell RNA-seq · human · 24 samples

What it is
Single-cell RNA-seqGene activity measured in thousands of individual cells, so cell types can be told apart. Read from the summary: GEO's own type field only says 'expression profiling by sequencing', so confirm it in the paper.
Organism
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
24 samples: 5 conditions, mostly in duplicateGroups are read from the sample names, not from the paper. Check the list below.
Data you can get
A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Differential expression analysis of scRNA-seq data is central for characterizing how experimental factors affect the distribution of gene expression. However, distinguishing between biological and technical sources of cell-cell variability and assessing the statistical significance of quantitative comparisons between cell groups remains challenging.

Here, we introduce memento, a tool designed to address these limitations by providing statistically robust and computationally efficient differential expression analysis of the mean, variability, and gene correlation from scRNA-seq. We applied memento to analyze 70,000 tracheal epithelial cells to identify interferon response genes with distinct variability and correlation patterns, 160,000 T cells perturbed with CRISPR-Cas9 to reconstruct gene-regulatory networks that control T cell activation, 1.2 million PMBCs to map cell-type-specific cis expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), and arbitrary cell groups within the entire 50 million cell CELLxGENE Discover data corpus. In all cases, memento identified more significant and reproducible differences in mean expression but also identified differences in variability and gene correlation that suggest distinct transcriptional regulation mechanisms imparted by cytokines, genetic perturbations, and natural genetic variation. These results demonstrate that memento is a first-in-class method for the quantitative analysis of scRNA-seq data, scalable to millions of cells and thousands of samples.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE274751_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Single-cell studies usually ship their counts as 10x files (matrix.mtx, barcodes.tsv, features.tsv), an .h5 file, or an .rds / .h5ad object that Seurat or Scanpy can open. Look for those among the supplementary files.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1147758 and SRA study SRP527092. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 24 samples.

How we read this: 5 replicated groups read from 24 sample titles; they account for 24 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
