annotating single-cell clusters from gene lists

Question

[Assa Yeroslaviz]

We're working on a scRNA-Seq data set, which I now want to annotate. Based on previous projects we have a list annotation categories in a tabular format.

From the examples I have seen, I need to have another Seurat or a singleCellExperiment object (or even, if using the celldex package a SummarizedExperiment object.) But all I have is a list of genes per category in a text file.

I was wondering how I can use a text file as an input to annotate my Seurat object I'm working on?

thanks

I use https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/UCell.htmlfor that.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
