Determination of the Stage Composition of Plasmodium Infections from Bulk Gene Expression Data

Abstract excerpt

Differences in cell type proportions among samples can introduce artifacts in gene expression analyses and mask genuine differences in gene regulation. Gene expression deconvolution allows estimation of the proportion of each cell type present in one sample directly from bulk RNA sequencing data, but this approach requires a reference data set with the signature profile of each cell type. Here, we evaluate the...
