Updated project metadata. Based on the work flow of quantitative proteomic analysis combined with TMT labeling and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), this study carried out quantitative proteomic analysis on the liver tissues of Tibetan pigs and Yorkshire pigs in Shannan (about 4000 m), Linzhi (about 3000 m) and Jiuzhaigou (about 1500 m), and compared the differences of protein mass spectra between the liver of living pigs at three altitudes.
