Current QC report diagnostics

Caleb Lareau

Summary summary

This file just computes the mean over all quality controls statistics described below over barcodes that are defined with isCell = TRUE. The idea is that this should represent the overall spectra of the experiment.

Individual experiment QC statistics

DropBarcode: assigned per droplet (after computational pairing) using the previously described formulation.

Exp: shorthand experiment ID for convenience.

FRIP: computed as the fraction of fragments overlapping chromatin accessibility peaks for a given peak annotation (variable dataset to dataset).

nBarcodesDroplet: The number of bead barcodes combined to form the specific droplet barcode.

filteredQ30: The number of reads passing a quality alignment filter of 30.

isDoublet: A boolean from nBarcodesDroplet > 1.

isCell: defined computationally; presently using uniqueNuclearFrags > 1000 and FRIP > 0.5

tssPproportion: proportion of fragments overlapping a TSS +/- 2kb for a given reference set of TSS genes (all Ref-Seq).

meanInsertSize: the mean of the insert sizes for each properly paired read per cell.

medianInsertSize: same but the median.

uniqueNuclearFrags: number of de-duplicated fragments mapping to the nuclear genome.

totalNuclearFrags: number of fragments (including duplicates) mapping to the nuclear genome.

totalMitoFrags: number of fragments uniquely aligning to the mitochondrial genome.

duplicateProportion: defined as (totalNuclearFrags - uniqueNuclearFrags)/ totalNuclearFrags

librarySize: estimated total number of unique reads that can be gathered per cell using the Lander-Waterman computation, a specific case of the "Coupon Collector" problem in statistics.
