Human protein secretory pathway genes are expressed in a tissue-specific pattern to match processing demands of the secretome

Gene expression: The human protein secretion pathway is tissue specific The secretory pathway, an ubiquitous cellular machinery in human cells, is here shown to have tissue-specific characteristics. A research team led by Prof. Jens Nielsen at the Chalmers University of Technology performed a meta-a...
