Abstract
BackgroundSingle-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) offers powerful insights, but the surge in sample sizes demands more computational power than local workstations can provide. Consequently, high-performance computing (HPC) systems have become imperative. Existing web apps designed to analyze scRNAseq data lack scalability and integration capabilities, while analysis packages demand coding expertise, hindering accessibility.ResultsIn response, we introduce scRNAbox, an innovative scRNAseq analysis pipeline meticulously crafted for HPC systems. This end-to-end solution, executed via the SLURM workload manager, efficiently processes raw data from standard and Hashtag samples. It incorporates quality control filtering, sample integration, clustering, cluster annotation tools, and facilitates cell type-specific differential gene expression analysis between two groups. We demonstrate the application of scRNAbox by analyzing two publicly available datasets.ConclusionScRNAbox is a comprehensive end-to-end pipeline designed to streamline the processing and analysis of scRNAseq data. By responding to the pressing demand for a user-friendly, HPC solution, scRNAbox bridges the gap between the growing computational demands of scRNAseq analysis and the coding expertise required to meet them.
