[2] Its stated goal is to experimentally observe all of the proteins produced by the sequences translated from the human genome.
Data reduction, analysis and validation of MS/MS based proteomics results is being provided by Eric Deutsch at the Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, USA (PeptideAtlas).
Data handling associated with antibody methods is being coordinated by Kalle von Feilitzen, Stockholm, Sweden (Human Protein Atlas).
Overall integration and reporting informatics are the responsibility of Lydie Lane at SIB, Geneva, Switzerland (NeXtProt).
[18][19] Based on a comparison of nine major annotation portals gave a spread of human protein counts from 21,819 to 18,891 (as of 2017).
