clustermolepy 0.3.0

Cluster annotation helper for single-cell RNA-seq data in Python

🧬 clustermolepy: Fast Enrichment for Annotating Single-Cell Clusters

clustermolepy is a light weight Python package inspired by the original clustermole R package. It's designed to help you annotate cell clusters from single-cell RNA-seq data using powerful gene set enrichment analysis.

🚀 Key Features

• Enrichr Integration :
  • Direct query of the Enrichr API for gene set enrichment analysis.
  • Multi-threaded get_cell_type_enrichment() for fast cell type enrichment using curated gene set libraries.
• Scanpy Integration :
  • Designed to work seamlessly with Scanpy AnnData objects.
  • Example workflow uses Scanpy for data loading, clustering, and marker gene identification.
• Biomart Integration :
  • Easily convert gene symbols across species using the Ensembl Biomart API.

📦 Installation

You can install the stable release from PyPI using pip:

pip install clustermolepy

Once installed, you can import and use clustermolepy in your Python environment.

🕹️ Quick Usage Example

Here's a simplified example of how to use clustermolepy to annotate cell clusters. For a more detailed walkthrough, check out the Jupyter Notebook in the examples directory!

Example: Interpreting a PBMC Cluster

import scanpy as sc
from clustermolepy.enrichr import Enrichr

# Load PBMC data and cluster
adata = sc.datasets.pbmc3k_processed()
sc.tl.leiden(adata, resolution=0.5, n_iterations=2, flavor='igraph')

# Get top marker genes for a cluster
sc.tl.rank_genes_groups(adata, 'leiden', method='wilcoxon')
markers = sc.get.rank_genes_groups_df(adata, group='1')
top_genes = markers['names'][:25].tolist()

# Run enrichment
enr = Enrichr(gene_list=top_genes)
df = enr.get_cell_type_enrichment()
print(df.head(3))

This will return a table with top matching cell types across multiple reference libraries like CellMarker, PanglaoDB, Azimuth, and more.

(Example Output - first 3 rows of the table):

Example: Cross-Species Gene Mapping

from clustermolepy.utils import Biomart

bm = Biomart()
result = bm.convert_gene_names(
    genes=["TP53", "CD4", "FOXP3"],
    from_organism="hsapiens",
    to_organism="mmusculus"
)
print(result)

(Example Output)

{
  'TP53': ['Trp53'],
  'CD4': ['Cd4'],
  'FOXP3': ['Foxp3']
}
