    Description

    RNA was extracted from FACS-sorted cells at 8 distinct stages of erythropoiesis, derived from CB- and PB-CD34+ cells. cDNA libraries were prepared using the Illumina TruSeq kit and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 (Epigenomics Core of Weill Cornell Medical College, New York). This sequencing strategy produced ~15-80 million 50bp single end reads per sample. For each distinct stage of erythropoiesis,...

    Description

    Biological triplicates of peripheral blood (PB)- and cord blood (CB)-derived colony-forming unit-erythroids (CFU-Es) were treated in the absence or presence of dexamethasone (100 nM) for 24 hours. These cells were then processed for proteomics analysis by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Proteomics quantified 10,045 proteins in PB samples and 10,028 proteins in CB samples....
