- A gene-centric Human Proteome Project has been proposed to characterize the human protein-coding genes in a chromosome-centered manner to understand human biology and disease. Here, we report on the protein evidence for all genes predicted from the genome sequence based on manual annotation from literature (UniProt), antibody-based profiling in cells, tissues and organs and analysis of the transcript profiles using next generation sequencing in human cell lines of different origins. We estimate that there is good evidence for protein existence for 69% (n = 13985) of the human protein-coding genes, while 23% have only evidence on the RNA level and 7% still lack experimental evidence. Analysis of the expression patterns shows few tissue-specific proteins and approximately half of the genes expressed in all the analyzed cells. The status for each gene with regards to protein evidence is visualized in a chromosome-centric manner as part of a new version of the Human Protein Atlas (www.proteinatlas.org).

Investigating the correlation of protein and mRNA levels in human cell lines using quantitative proteomics and transcriptomics

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- An important topic of discussion in proteomics is the degree of correlation of RNA and protein levels in cells, tissues and organs. In this study, the difference in protein and mRNA levels for a number of selected gene targets were investigated across six human cell lines using quantitative proteomics and next generation sequencing-based transcriptomics. The copy numbers of 32 proteins were determined using an absolute quantitative proteomics approach (PrEST-SILAC), where heavy isotope-labeled protein fragments were used as internal standards. A cross evaluation of protein copy numbers determined by mass spectrometry and staining profiles using immunohistochemistry showed good correlation. The mRNA levels were determined using RNA sequencing based on digital counting of sequencing reads and the levels determined as FPKM values. Comparison of the relative variations in mRNA and protein levels for individual genes across the six cell lines showed correlation between protein and mRNA levels, including six genes with high variability in expression levels in the six cell lines resulting in an average correlation of 0.9 (Spearman's rank coefficient). In summary, the analysis of the selected protein targets supports the conclusion that the translation rate across cell lines correlates for a particular gene, suggesting that individual protein levels can be predicted from the respective mRNA levels by defining the relation between protein and mRNA, specific for each human gene.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Global classification of the human proteins with regards to spatial expression patterns across organs and tissues is important for studies of human biology and disease. Here, we used a quantitative transcriptomics analysis (RNA-Seq) to classify the tissue-specific expression of genes across a representative set of all major human organs and tissues and combined this analysis with antibody- based profiling of the same tissues. To present the data, we launch a new version of the Human Protein Atlas that integrates RNA and protein expression data corresponding to 80% of the human protein-coding genes with access to the primary data for both the RNA and the protein analysis on an individual gene level. We present a classification of all human protein-coding genes with regards to tissue-specificity and spatial expression pattern. The integrative human expression map can be used as a starting point to explore the molecular constituents of the human body.
