Multiome and CITE-seq analysis services

When you measure two or three modalities in the same cell, the analysis should use all of them. We run joint modeling for RNA + ATAC, RNA + surface protein, and trimodal assays.

In short

OmicsQuest provides joint analysis of single-cell multi-omic data: 10x Genomics Multiome (gene expression + ATAC), CITE-seq and REAP-seq (RNA + surface protein), TEA-seq and DOGMA-seq. We denoise antibody-derived tags (DSB, totalVI), build weighted-nearest-neighbor or MultiVI joint embeddings, link enhancers to genes and infer regulatory networks with SCENIC+. Rates start at $79/hour and figure revisions are unlimited.

Publication-quality figures

The kind of multi-panel figure we deliver, styled to journal specifications and revised until it is right.

Three-panel multi-omic figure: weighted-nearest-neighbor UMAP, scatter of CD4 RNA versus protein, and violin plots of modality weights per cell type.
Example figure. a, Joint embedding of RNA and chromatin or protein modalities using weighted nearest neighbors. b, CD4 transcript versus DSB-normalized surface protein, showing how protein recovers cells lost to RNA dropout. c, Per-cell RNA modality weights by cell type.

Multiome and CITE-seq analysis: analyses we run

Every analysis below is available from raw data or from your processed files. Pick the ones your question needs; we recommend a robust core set during scoping.

Protein (ADT) processing

ADT denoising
DSB normalization using empty droplets and isotype controls, or totalVI background modeling.
Hashtag demultiplexing
HTO-based sample assignment and cross-sample doublet removal.
Gating-style analysis
Flow-cytometry-like biaxial plots from ADT for immunologist-friendly validation.

Joint representation

Weighted nearest neighbors (WNN)
Seurat WNN to weight each modality per cell.
Deep generative models
totalVI for RNA + protein and MultiVI for RNA + ATAC, with batch correction.
Factor analysis
MOFA+ to find shared and modality-specific variation.

Regulation and interpretation

Enhancer-gene links
Peak-to-gene correlation within the same cells.
Gene regulatory networks
SCENIC+ eRegulons that connect TF, enhancer and target gene.
Protein-RNA discordance
Find cell states where surface protein and transcript disagree, which often matters biologically.
Multimodal differential testing
Pseudobulk tests on RNA, accessibility and protein per cell type and condition.

What you receive

Mistakes our experts avoid

  • Normalizing ADTs like RNAAntibody counts have high, sample-specific background. We use DSB or totalVI rather than log-normalizing ADTs as if they were transcripts.
  • Letting one modality dominateConcatenating features lets ATAC or RNA swamp the other. We weight modalities per cell.
  • Over-interpreting peak-gene correlationsCorrelation across cell types is confounded by cell identity. We test links within cell types and against background peaks.
  • Missing isotype controlsWithout isotype controls, nonspecific binding looks like real protein expression. We flag it and use empty droplets as background.

  3. Secure transfer and QC

    Encrypted transfer, then a QC report and a go/no-go call within days.

  4. Analysis with check-ins

    Weekly calls with your duo team and interim figures you can steer.

  5. Figures, methods, code

    Publication-quality figures, methods text and reproducible code. Revisions are unlimited.

Frequently asked questions

Is 10x Multiome better than separate scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq?

Multiome measures RNA and ATAC in the same nucleus, so enhancer-gene links and regulatory networks rest on direct pairing instead of inference. The trade-off is lower per-modality depth than single-modality assays. We can help you decide during a free scoping call.

How many antibodies can you handle in CITE-seq?

Panels from 10 to more than 200 antibodies, including TotalSeq-A, -B and -C panels. Larger panels benefit most from totalVI modeling.

Can you combine Multiome with spatial data?

Yes. We often use Multiome-derived cell states and regulatory programs as references for Visium HD or Xenium mapping.
