scReadSim’s synthetic scATAC-seq data mimic the real sci-ATAC-seq dataset23 in terms of the cell-type-specific read coverage (a), the fragment-size distribution (b), the substitution error rate per base within a read (c), and the peaks called by MACS3 at the pseudo-bulk level (d; “Methods”). e scReadSim enables user-designed, cell-type-specific ground-truth (g.t.) peaks for scATAC-seq read generation.
