Here, we present SC1 a web-based highly interactive scRNA-Seq data analysis tool publicly accessible at https://sc1.engr.uconn.edu. The tool presents an integrated workflow for scRNA-Seq analysis, implements a novel method of selecting informative genes based on Term-Frequency Inverse-Document-Frequency (TF-IDF) scores, and provides a broad range of methods for clustering, differential expression analysis, gene enrichment, interactive visualization, and cell cycle analysis. The tool integrates other single cell omics data modalities like TCR-Seq and supports several single cell sequencing technologies. In just a few steps, researchers can generate a comprehensive analysis and gain powerful insights from their scRNA-Seq data.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
