Abstract:
A complete set of high-quality antibodies against the human proteome would constitute a remarkable resource for the analysis of protein abundances in tissues, facilitating systematic protein expression profiling in health and disease. In two recent papers, Swedish researchers describe a concerted effort towards producing a 'Human Protein Atlas' by combining high-throughput antibody generation with immunohistochemical profiling of tissue microarrays.
