SCENIC

SCENIC

An R pipeline for inference of gene regulatory networks and identification of cell states in RNA-seq data sets. The SCENIC (Single-Cell rEgulatory Network Inference and Clustering) workflow utilizes three separate packages, GENIE3 or GRNBoost2, RcisTarget, and AUCell. A Python implementation of this workflow is faster than this initial R version. See links for pySCENIC. The current version supports human, mouse, and Drosophila melanogaster.
