Hi All
Are these percentages of mitcohondoria seems normal for single nuclei/Single Cell RNASeq? What is a normal rate? Thanks
Thank you Basti very much. But this is even if it is single nuclei? The paper talks about single cell? Thanks
You're right and I don't see any paper that studied the subject in greater depth, but I believe the percentage should be lower. An exemple here in Fig 2D : https://genomemedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13073-021-00941-8 "the percentage of mitochondrial genes sequenced in the nucleus-containing droplets was lower than the cell-containing particles (2.7% and 4.2%, respectively)" and they filtered out nuclei with >20% mitochondrial gene counts.
Got it. Thank you very much Basti.
