xcltk: Toolkit for XClone Preprocessing

XClone is a statistical method to detect haplotype-aware copy number variations (CNVs) and reconstruct tumour clonal substructure from scRNA-seq data, by integrating the expression levels (read depth ratio; RDR signals) and the allelic balance (B-allele frequency; BAF signals). It takes three matrices as input: the allele-specific AD and DP matrices (BAF signals) and the total read depth matrix (RDR signals).

The xcltk package implements a preprocessing pipeline to generate the three matrices from SAM/BAM/CRAM files. It supports data from multiple single-cell sequencing platforms, including droplet-based (e.g., 10x Genomics) and well-based (e.g., SMART-seq) platforms.

News

You can find the full manual of the xcltk preprocessing pipeline at preprocess/README.md.

All release notes are available at docs/release.rst

Installation

xcltk is avaliable through pypi. To install, type the following command line, and add -U for upgrading:

pip install -U xcltk

Alternatively, you can install from this GitHub repository for latest (often development) version by following command line

pip install -U git+https://github.com/hxj5/xcltk

In either case, if you don't have write permission for your current Python environment, we suggest creating a separate conda environment or add --user for your current one.

Manual

You can check the full parameters with xcltk -h.
