Biological process activity transformation of single cell gene expression for cross-species alignment.

ABSTRACT: The maintenance and transition of cellular states are controlled by biological processes. Here we present a gene set-based transformation of single cell RNA-Seq data into biological process activities that provides a robust description of cellular states. Moreover, as these activities represent species-independent descriptors, they facilitate the alignment of single cell states across different organisms.
