Experimental and Computational Methods for Allelic Imbalance Analysis from Single-Nucleus RNA-seq Data

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is emerging as a powerful tool for understanding gene function across diverse cells. Recently, this has included the use of allele-specific expression (ASE) analysis to better understand how variation in the human genome affects RNA expression at the single-cell level. We reasoned that because intronic reads are…
