Help Index

Gene expression data for normal human tissues from the Human Protein Atlas (HPA). This data was specially processed by the HPA group as FPKM values (file "HPA.normal.FPKM.GDCpipeline.csv") using a pipeline similar to that employed by GDC for the TCGA RNA-seq data.

Description

A data.table with 1,088,694 rows and 4 columns (Gene, Tissue, FPKM, TissueSpecificity):

  • Gene: Ensembl gene ID

  • Tissue: Human tissue type

  • FPKM: Mean expression of that gene in units FPKM+1

  • TissueSpecificity: The fold-change in expression between mean expression in that tissue and mean in all 18 tissues.

Usage

hpa.data

Format

A data.table with 1,088,694 rows and 4 columns (Gene, Tissue, FPKM, TissueSpecificity)
