TCRscape: a single-cell multi-omic TCR profiling toolkit.

Introduction: Single-cell multi-omics has transformed T-cell biology by enabling the simultaneous analysis of T-cell receptor (TCR) sequences, transcriptomes, and surface proteins at the resolution of individual cells. These capabilities are critical for identifying antigen-specific T-cells and accelerating the development of TCR-based immunotherapies. Methods: Here, we introduce TCRscape, an open-source Python 3 tool designed for high-resolution T-cell receptor clonotype discovery and quantification, optimized for BD Rhapsody™ single-cell multi-omics data. Results: TCRscape integrates full-length TCR sequence data with gene expression profiles and surface protein expression to enable multimodal clustering of αβ and γδ T-cell populations. It also outputs Seurat-compatible matrices, facilitating downstream visualization and analysis in standard single-cell analysis environments. Discussion: By bridging clonotype detection with immune cell transcriptome, proteome, and antigen specificity profiling, TCRscape supports rapid identification of dominant T-cell clones and their functional phenotypes, offering a powerful resource for immune monitoring and TCR-engineered therapeutic development.
