A resource for whole-body gene expression map of human tissues based on integration of single cell and bulk transcriptomics.

New technologies enable single-cell transcriptome analysis, mapping genome-wide expression across the human body. Here, we present an extended analysis of protein-coding genes in all major human tissues and organs, combining single-cell and bulk transcriptomics. To enhance transcriptome depth, 31 tissues were analyzed using a pooling method, identifying 557 unique cell clusters, manually annotated by marker gene expression. Genes were classified by body-wide expression and validated through antibody-based profiling. All results are available in the updated open-access Single Cell Type section of the Human Protein Atlas for genome-wide exploration of genes, proteins, and their spatial distribution in cells.
