MiXCR v4.1.1
Overview
With this release we continue extending the set of supported single-cell protocols by adding new ready-to-use presets to our collection. Additionally to newly supported protocols and features required for their reliable processing this release comes with many usability optimizations and stability improvements. See details below:
Major changes
- presets for analysis of all types of BD Rhapsody data (see docs for the list of supported kits)
- analysis of data produced by single-cell protocol described in Han et al. (2014) (see docs)
- special presets for exom data analysis
exom-cdr3
andexom-full-length
- initial support for overlap-extension-based chain pairing protocols
- possibility to export groups of similar columns specifying single option (like
-allAAFeatures <from_reference_point> <to_reference_point>
) - user-friendly alternative for
-uniqueTagsCount
--allUniqueTagsCount
; allows to export counts of unique tag combinations (useful for protocols with multipleCELL
andUMI
barcodes) - new "by sequence" filters for all somatic hypermutation trees (SHMT) exports
- new weighted auto-threshold selection and complementary metric histogram aggregation modes (i.e. y-axis on reads-pre-UMI plots now can show number of reads instead of number of UMIs)
- detected allelic variants are now can also be exported in fasta format right from the
findAlleles
command - better algorithm for seed sequence selection in consensus assembly routine in
assemble
; increases productive consensus count for cases with multi-variant tag groups (i.e. birthday paradoxes in UMI data or single-cell data analysis without UMIs)
Minor changes:
- minor adjustments for existing presets
- many CLI and parameter validation fixes, more human-readable error messages, better protection from common input errors
- support for preset-embedded tag whitelists for protocols with small number of barcode variants
- options
--use-local-temp
,--threads
,--not-aligned-R1
(R2
) and--not-parsed-R1
(R2
) are now available inanalyze
, additionally to individual step commands - bugfix for imputation in export for compound gene features
- other minor fixes and enhancements
