A transcriptomic and proteomic map of primary human cell types

Molecular profiling of human primary cell types is essential for understanding human biology. We present a transcriptome and proteome map of 28 primary human cell types. Three major clusters of epithelial, endothelial, and mesenchymal cell types were observed in both the transcriptome and proteome levels along with the discovery of cell type enriched molecules including GRAP and C1orf116. The epithelial cell specific protein C1orf116 was further validated using immunohistochemistry across...
