MetabolomicsHyocholic acid species as novel biomarkers for metabolic disorders
Hyocholic acid (HCA) is a major bile acid (BA) species in the BA pool of pigs, a species known for its exceptional resistance to spontaneous development of diabetic phenotypes. HCA and its derivatives are also present in human blood and urine. We investigate whether human HCA profiles can predict th...

UnknownGenetic Divergence between Camellia sinensis and Its Wild Relatives Revealed via Genome-Wide SNPs from RAD Sequencing.
Tea is one of the most popular beverages across the world and is made exclusively from cultivars of Camellia sinensis. Many wild relatives of the genus Camellia that are closely related to C. sinensis are native to Southwest China. In this study, we first identified the distinct genetic divergence b...

GenomicsGenome-Wide Association Studies in Upper Gastrointestinal Cancers (Asian)

This project aims to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in two anatomically different upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancer sites in two populations with distinctly different disease rates and genetic profiles. One population has very high rates for both esophageal squamous cel...

UnknownDraft genome sequence of Camellia sinensis var. sinensis provides insights into the evolution of the tea genome and tea quality.
Tea, one of the world's most important beverage crops, provides numerous secondary metabolites that account for its rich taste and health benefits. Here we present a high-quality sequence of the genome of tea, Camellia sinensis var. sinensis (CSS), using both Illumina and PacBio sequen...

UnknownThe tea plant reference genome and improved gene annotation using long-read and paired-end sequencing data.
Tea is a globally consumed non-alcohol beverage with great economic importance. However, lack of the reference genome has largely hampered the utilization of precious tea plant genetic resources towards breeding. To address this issue, we previously generated a high-quality reference genome of tea p...

ProteomicsA systemic view of microbial ecology in spontaneous fermentation of Chinese traditional pu-erh tea
To study the microbial functions, metaproteomes were extracted from 36 samples of fermented tea leaves and subjected to LC-MS/MS analyses. The MS/MS data were searched against the UniProt-protein database of the dominant microorganisms in the sample as identified by previous meta-barcoding analysis....

UnknownA Quantitative Proteome Map of the Human Body.
Determining protein levels in each tissue and how they compare with RNA levels is important for understanding human biology and disease as well as regulatory processes that control protein levels. We quantified the relative protein levels from over 12,000 genes across 32 normal human tissues. Tissue...

UnknownCo-expression networks reveal the tissue-specific regulation of transcription and splicing.
Gene co-expression networks capture biologically important patterns in gene expression data, enabling functional analyses of genes, discovery of biomarkers, and interpretation of genetic variants. Most network analyses to date have been limited to assessing correlation between total gene expression ...

UnknownIdentifying <i>cis</i>-mediators for <i>trans</i>-eQTLs across many human tissues using genomic mediation analysis.
The impact of inherited genetic variation on gene expression in humans is well-established. The majority of known expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) impact expression of local genes (cis-eQTLs). More research is needed to identify effects of genetic variation on distant genes (tran...

UnknownLandscape of X chromosome inactivation across human tissues.
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) silences transcription from one of the two X chromosomes in female mammalian cells to balance expression dosage between XX females and XY males. XCI is, however, incomplete in humans: up to one-third of X-chromosomal genes are expressed from both the active and inacti...
