BIRD identifies cell doublets using biallelic expression ratios from single-cell RNA-seq data, achieving high accuracy in simulated and real datasets.

The paper analyzes allele-specific expression (ASE) variants across human samples, identifying their genomic features and associations with immune-related phenotypes and diseases.

The paper identifies X-chromosome escapees using single-cell RNA-Seq in fibroblasts and lymphoblasts, finding 24 and 49 candidates, respectively, with 66% previously reported and 11 being lncRNAs.

The paper identifies human genes that escape X-chromosome inactivation using single-cell RNA-Seq and allelic expression analysis, finding 25-31 escapee genes with high confidence.
