Project description:RNA was extracted from the meninges of mice from either Specific pathogen free or Germ free facilities or from the offspring of mice reconstituted with different human microbiomes.
Project description:HuMiChip2 was applied to analyze perform both strain-level identification and the functional profiling of human gut microbiomes from alcoholic cirrhosis patients and healthy individuals with alcohol abuse.
Project description:An archaeological bone fragment from Baishiya Karst Cave, China, was identified as stemming from a hominin through ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry). Shotgun palaeoproteomic analyses were thereafter conducted on the specimen to refine the taxonomic identification and perform phylogenetic analyses. The reconstruted proteome shows that the newly described Baishiya Karst Cave individual, Xiahe 2, is most closely related to the high-coverage published genome from a Denisovan individual.
