SnapATAC (Single Nucleus Analysis Pipeline for ATAC-seq) is a fast and accurate method for analyzing single cell ATAC-seq datasets. SnapATAC 1) overcomes the limitation of reliance on population-level peak annotation, 2) improves the clustering accuracy by integrating "off-peak" reads, 3) controls for the major bias using a regression-based normalization method and 4) substantially outperforms current methods in scalability.
- SnapATAC enables other dimentionality reduction (LSA, LSA-logTF, LDA)
- SnapATAC enables clustering using leiden algorithm
- SnapATAC enables batch effect correction
- SnapATAC enables motif analysis using chromVAR

SnapATAC has two components: Snaptools and SnapATAC.
- SnapTools - a python module for pre-processing and working with snap file.
- SnapATAC - a R package for the clustering, annotation, motif discovery and downstream analysis.
Install snaptools from PyPI. See how to install snaptools on FAQs.
$ pip install snaptools
