Project description:A spectrum dataset with 329 tree leaf samples and a blank control file from Yunnan Province, Southwest China. Collection and extraction was completed in Yang Jie Group
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.
Project description:Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic and chronic osteochondropathy with unknown etiology. The disease mostly occurs in children between the ages of 3 and 13 in a diagonal belt-like area ranging from Northeast to Southwest China. We carried out this microarray analysis to investigate the differences in gene expression levels between KBD patients and healthy controls. Total RNA was isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
