The Human Protein Atlas (HPA) is a Swedish-based program started in 2003 with the aim to map all the human proteins in cells, tissues and organs using integration of various omics technologies, including antibody-based imaging, mass spectrometry-based proteomics, transcriptomics and systems biology. All the data in the knowledge resource is open access to allow scientists both in academia and industry to freely access the data for exploration of the human proteome. In June 2023, version 23 was launched where a new Interaction section was introduced containing human protein-protein interaction networks for more than 11,000 genes that will add new aspects in terms of protein function.
The resource now includes twelve separate sections with complementary information about all human proteins. All data has been updated on the approximately 5 million individual web pages. The Human Protein Atlas program has already contributed to several thousands of publications in the field of human biology and disease and was selected by the organization ELIXIR as a European core resource due to its fundamental importance for a wider life science community. The HPA consortium is funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.
