Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.- CD3D, CD3G, CD4, ITGB1, KLRB1, CCL5, GZMA, GZMB, GZMH, GNLY, FGFBP2
Rationale
- T and NK cells were identified via RCAv2. Integration and sub-clustering of all NK and T cells were performed to identify CD4+ T cells, and CD4+ T and dnT cells were further sub-clustered. CD4+ T clusters were annotated based on marker genes, particularly heightened levels of GZMB expression, as well as the presence of TCR barcodes.
Inherited from author_cell_type
- Set of Labels Description
- These author cell type labels were assigned largely at the per-cluster level. We identified broad cell types using RCAv2-based clustering (B, CD34+ haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC), myeloid, natural killer (NK), plasma cell, plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC), platelet, and T). We then performed cell population-specific (B; myeloid + pDC; CD4+ T and dnT; non-CD4+ T and NK and ILC) integration (Seurat RPCA) and sub-clustering (Louvain clustering), and annotated clusters based on their marker genes.
