Here, we describe the use of antibody-based proteomics involving the generation of protein-specific antibodies to functionally explore the human proteome. The antibodies can be used for analysis of corresponding proteins in a wide range of assay platforms, including i) immunohistochemistry for detailed tissue profiling, ii) specific affinity reagents for various functional protein assays, and iii) capture (“pull-down”) reagents for purification of specific proteins and their associated…

Antibody-Based Proteomics

The Swedish Human Protein Atlas (HPA) program has been set up to allow for a systematic exploration of the human proteome using Antibody-Based Proteomics by combining high-throughput generation of affinity-purified antibodies with protein profiling in a multitude of tissues/celltypes assembled in tissue microarrays.

A Human Protein Atlas for Normal and Cancer Tissues Based on Antibody Proteomics*

A new publicly available database containing, in the first version, ∼400,000 high resolution images corresponding to more than 700 antibodies toward human proteins, providing a knowledge base for functional studies and to allow queries about protein profiles in normal and disease tissues.
