Can 5' end 10x be used instead of 3' end
It depends on the task. If you want to recover TCR and BCR repertoires along with gene expression - 5' is a must. Also, for an overview repertoire analysis you dont even have to perform target ...

umap failed to cluster the cells
Without more code and data, this can't be debugged. But first question would be does the data pass basic QC (e.g. look at cellranger web summaries or equivalent). If yes, you could trying different ...

How to identify a low proportion cell subpopulation in the single-cell RNA-seq data?
Run the usual steps including clustering and visualization via something like UMAP and then color the UMAP by these four markers. That assumes that the surface marker separation you see in flow holds ...

Cellranger results have too many cells
The Barcode Rank plot shows very high background in your sample.
The cell estimation from Cell Ranger will look for a sudden drop in the number of UMIs and use this ...

Does the number of RNA reads per cell obtained from the 10X scRNA experiment depend on amount of mRNA in given cell?
I am inclined to agree with you that the reads-per-cell is dependent on the cell type and cell cycle state. In the datasets I have analyzed, I observed that immune cells tend to have far fewer reads ...

How to do pathway analysis after scanpy for single cell data after DE analysis?
An easy way to do an enrichment analysis in scanpy is using scanpy.queries.enrich(). This relies on gprofiler, which uses KEGG, GO and other ontologies

How many percents explained variance by the first 50 principal components of PCA analysis is suitable for downstream `KNN` and `umap`?
Edit To answer the question, you're looking for 80% variance .... from the comments the actual command is np.cumsum which changes things a lot.
Previous response ......

Best method to compare differentially expressed genes between 2 single cell clusters for GSEA
I wish to focus my contribution singly on ScanPy vs. Seurat FindMarkers.
ScanPy's claim is it is essentially a speeded up version of Seurat FindMarkers with better performance (discussed below) ...

Error in dimnamesGets(x, value) when trying to read data using Seurat package
Check the length of your files. The error clearly says that there is a difference in the length of your files. Your file length should be equal.
I think the problem may be the presence of a header in ...

How can to validate the presence of a certain type of cells in a single cell dataset?
I think the typical way to do this would be to identify a small number of marker genes whose presence and absence is specific for that cell type.
Only top scored, non community-wiki answers of a minimum length are eligible
