Detecting cell-type-specific allelic expression imbalance by integrative analysis of bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing data.
Allelic expression imbalance (AEI), quantified by the relative expression of two alleles of a gene in a diploid organism, can help explain phenotypic variations among individuals. Traditional methods detect AEI using bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data, a data type that averages out cell-to-cell hete...
