Transcription factor landscape - Brain region - Glial cells

Transcriptome analysis shows that 67% (n=13603) of all human proteins (n=20162) are detected in glial cells and 2712 of these genes show an elevated expression in any glial cells compared to other brain cell types. Learn more about genes with elevated expression in glial cells here. In-depth analysis of transcription factor genes expressed in glial cells highlights 195 transcription factors with elevated expression in glial cells compared to other cell types. In total, 21 transcription factors are classified as enriched in glial cells.

Here we provide the expression overview of all transcription factors that show enriched expression levels in glial clusters compared to other brain cluster types.
