Description
The
-NIH Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project
+
+NIH Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project
was created to establish a sample and data resource for studies on the relationship between
genetic variation and gene expression in multiple human tissues.
This track shows median gene expression levels in 52 tissues and 2 cell lines,
based on RNA-seq data from the GTEx final data release (V8, August 2019).
-This release is based on data from 17382 tissue samples obtained from 948 adult post-mortem individuals.

Display Conventions
In Full and Pack display modes, expression for each gene is represented by a colored bargraph,
where the height of each bar represents the median expression level across all samples for a
tissue, and the bar color indicates the tissue.
Tissue colors were assigned to conform to the GTEx Consortium publication conventions.
The bargraph display has the same width and tissue order for all genes.
Mouse hover over a bar will show the tissue and median expression level.
The Squish display mode draws a rectangle for each gene, colored to indicate the tissue
with highest expression level if it contributes more than 10% to the overall expression
(and colored black if no tissue predominates).
In Dense mode, the darkness of the grayscale rectangle displayed for the gene reflects the total
median expression level across all tissues.
