On the top, protein expression in current human tissue, based on all annotated cell types, is reported with the units not detected (n), low (l), medium (m) and high (h). Underneath, protein expression in each annotated cell type are reported using the same units. Protein expression data is based on knowledge-based annotation. For genes where more than one antibody has been used, a collective score is set. If knowledge-based annotation could not be performed for a gene, no data is displayed here.

RNA expressioni
A summary of mRNA expression data available for current tissue based on several datasets. The mRNA expression levels in human tissues are based on RNA-seq data generated by the Human Protein Atlas HPA, Genotype-Tissue Expression GTEx portal and CAGE data generated by the FANTOM5 consortium. Consensus normalized expression levels for human tissues was created by combining the data from HPA and GTEx datasets. The mRNA expression levels in pig brain are based on RNA-seq data generated by the Human Protein Atlas, and for mouse brain HPA data and in situ hybridization generated by the Allen brain atlas dataset are reported.

MIDBRAIN - SINGLE NUCLEI RNA EXPRESSIONi
RNA expression in the single nuclei cluster types identified in this brain region visualized by a UMAP plot (top) and a bar chart (to the right).
- UMAP PLOT visualizes the cells in each cluster; where each dot corresponds to a cell. For each individual cell, mouseover reveals read count and which cluster the cell belongs to. Hovering over a cluster name will highlight the corresponding cluster in the bar chart two the right. There are 2 options for color schemes: 1) cell type color, which is based on cell type groups used in the Single cell type part of the Single cell resource and 2) cluster color, which assigns a unique color to each cluster. There are 3 options for cell intensities: 1) Intensity, which color the individual cells according to % of max (log2(read_count+1)/log2(max(read_count)+1)*100) in five different bins (<1%,<25%,<50%,<75%,≥75%) 2) Interval, which color the individual cells according to fixed interval of read count (0,1,2-4,5-9,>10) 3) Hexagon, which color the hexagon on average read count of all cells inside the hexagon
- The BAR CHART shows RNA expression (nTPM) in each cluster type. Hovering over the cluster name reveals nTPM value and number of included cells. Hovering over a bar highlights the corresponding cluster in the UMAP plot above. Color-coding can be toggled on the top of the page, between 2 options: 1) cell type color, which is based on cell type groups used in the Single cell type part of the Single cell resource and 2) cluster color, which assigns a unique color to each cluster.
