A single-cell transcriptomic study of the diverse populations of olfactory projection neurons in the Drosophila pupal brain.
Reads were aligned to the Drosophila melanogaster reference genome using STAR v2.4.2a (Dobin et al., 2013). Uniquely mapped reads that overlap with genes were counted using HTSeq-count v0.7.1 (Anders et al., 2015), with cells having fewer than 300,000 uniquely mapped reads removed. Principal component analysis was performed using the top 500 most variable genes; typically 7 to 12 principal components were used for further analysis.
The EMBL-EBI's Single Cell Expression Atlas provides cell-level annotations, clustering data, raw and normalised read counts, and putative marker genes.
