Indian sandalwood () is an important tropical evergreen tree known for its fragrant heartwood-derived essential oil and its valuable carving wood. Here, we applied an integrated genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic approach to assemble and annotate the Indian sandalwood genome. Our genome sequencing resulted in the establishment of a draft map of the smallest genome for any woody tree species to date (221 Mb).

Here, we report mass spectrometry-based identification and characterization of proteins encoded by genes on chromosome 12. Our study is based on proteomic profiling of 30 different histologically normal human tissues and cell types using high-resolution mass spectrometry.
