Umite: fast quantification of Smart-seq3 libraries with improved UMI retrieval

Commercial solutions like 10X cellranger provide robust UMI quantification for their proprietary single-cell protocols, but open methods such as Smart-seq3 lack comparable support.Here, we introduce umite, a Smart-seq3 UMI counting pipeline with a focus on speed and a light memory footprint. Unlike...

Description
Résumé:Commercial solutions like 10X cellranger provide robust UMI quantification for their proprietary single-cell protocols, but open methods such as Smart-seq3 lack comparable support.Here, we introduce umite, a Smart-seq3 UMI counting pipeline with a focus on speed and a light memory footprint. Unlike existing tools, umite offers efficient mismatch-tolerant UMI detection, boosting UMI retrieval by 5%-15% in benchmarks. It also outperforms current Smart-seq3 quantification tools in runtime, disk usage, and memory footprint, offering better scalability on large datasets.umite is available at https://github.com/leoforster/umite (or via Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18166431) and includes a Snakemake workflow for Smart-seq3 quantification.
