News from The Human Protein AtlasThe latest news from the Human Protein Atlas.https://www.proteinatlas.org/newsEaster gene huntEaster celebration is very tightly linked to eggs and therefore we will take this opportunity to have a closer look at the zona pellucida proteins, some of the most important genes in the human oocyte.https://www.proteinatlas.org/news/2026-04-02/easter-gene-huntThu, 2 Apr 2026 00:00:00Multiplex tissue image of the month - SHC2 in pancreasThe protein expression of SHC adaptor protein 2 (gene: SHC2) within alpha cells of endocrine pancreas is explored with multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC/IF) in the latest update of Human Protein Atlas.https://www.proteinatlas.org/news/2026-03-26/multiplex-tissue-image-of-the-month-shc2-in-pancreasThu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00Bridging science and industry: what Mathias Uhlén wants the next generation to buildMore than 600 national and international leaders gathered to review strategic progress and discuss trends in education, health and research at the Reunión de Consejeros 2026 (Advisors Meeting), and Mathias Uhlén was one of the keynote speakers.https://www.proteinatlas.org/news/2026-03-19/bridging-science-and-industry-what-mathias-uhlacn-wants-the-next-generation-to-buildThu, 19 Mar 2026 00:00:00>180 proteins mapped to motile ciliated cellsIn a study published in Journal of Proteome Research, >180 proteins have been spatially mapped to specific subcellular compartments in cells with motile cilia using multiplex immunohistochemistry. The high-resolution data is available in the HPA Tissue resource, and aids in further functional mapping of proteins with limited evidence.https://www.proteinatlas.org/news/2026-03-12/180-proteins-mapped-to-motile-ciliated-cellsThu, 12 Mar 2026 00:00:00STING acts as a molecular barrier to bird fluDo you remember the outbreak of avian flu back in 2005? This outbreak was associated with a substantial number of human infections by the avian influenza A (IAV) virus H5N1. Almost all human cases were linked to close contact with infected, dying, or dead poultry, rather than human-to-human transmission, but the virus was highly lethal. This sparked awareness of the pandemic threat posed by zoonotic transmission of viruses, also among the general public.https://www.proteinatlas.org/news/2026-03-05/sting-acts-as-a-molecular-barrier-to-bird-fluThu, 5 Mar 2026 00:00:00
