Scope

hESCNeuroDiff.ArchR is an user-friendly, integrative open-source Shiny-based web app using R programming for visualization of massive single-cell chromatin accessibility data (scATAC-seq) of hESC neuronal differentiation analyzed using on ArchR (Corces et al., 2021).

Approach

The ArchR objects saved in folders along with HDF5 formatted Arrow files are used for input in hESCNeuroDiff.ArchR. Here we show single-cell ATAC seq data of Differentiation protocol on Neuronal cell lines.

Data Visualization of ShinyArchR.UiO:
  • scATAC-seq clusters, unconstrained and constrained clusters on integrated reduced dimensions UMAP from ArchR objects
  • Peaks using plot browser tracks on clusters on scATAC-seq modality
  • Peaks2Genelinks tracks on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) integrated data with scATAC-seq using plot browser tracks. The co-accessibility among the genes can be visualized in the bottom panel
  • Heatmaps of pseudo time trajectory
  • Heatmaps of top 50 markers Peak2Genelinks in scATAC-seq and scRNA-seq
