CACIMAR: cross-species analysis of cell identities, markers and regulations using single-cell sequencing profiles

CACIMAR has the following 4 main functions:

• Identify all cell-type specific markers in each species

• Identify species-specific or evolutionally conserved markers

• Identify conserved intracellular regulations (gene regulatory networks)

• Identify conserved intercellular interactions (cell-cell communications)

Installation

Install CACIMAR from github, run:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jiang-junyao/CACIMAR")
