RNA tissue category
The RNA tissue category is based on mRNA expression levels in 32 different tissues (
RNA assay description).
The categories include: tissue enriched, group enriched, tissue enhanced, expressed in all, not detected, and mixed.
RNA tissue category is calculated separately both for internally generated Human Protein Atlas (HPA) RNA-seq data, as
well as RNA-seq data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (
GTEx) consortium.
Protein evidence
Protein evidence scores are generated from several independent sources
and are classified as evidence at i) protein level, ii) transcript level, iii) no evidence or iv) not available.
Protein localization
A summary of the overall protein expression pattern across the analyzed tissues. The summary is based on knowledge-based
annotation (
Annotation description). For genes pending
knowledge-based annotation, the protein localization refers to the antibody staining pattern.
"RNA-based expert annotation gave inconconclusive results" is shown for genes analyzed with a knowledge-based approach where
available RNA-seq and gene/protein characterization data has been evaluated as not sufficient in combination with
immunohistochemistry-data to yield a reliable estimation of the protein expression profile.
