DATASET - Mass Spectrometry - Snake venom proteomics of three subspecies of the North African mountain viper (Vipera monticola, Saint-Girons 1954) from Morocco

This DATASET collection includes the mass spectrometry files for proteomics venom investigation of three subspecies of the North African mountain viper (Vipera monticola, Saint-Girons 1954) from Morocco. Species list: <ol> <li>Vipera monticola monticola</li> <li>Vipera monticola atlantica</li> <li>Vipera monticola saintgironsi</li> </ol> Folders 01-03 - BOTTOM-UP PROTEOMICS: The venom pools were investigated by the bottom-up "snake venomics" (labled as SVX) approach and in short: separated by RP-HPLC, followed by SDS-PAGE separation and the single bands were in-gel processed by DTT, IAC and finally o/n tryptic digested. Samples submitted to HPLC-MS/MS. Early peptidic fractions of the first HPLC run were directly submitted to HPLC-MS/MS analytic w/o further gel procession. Folders 01 to 03 include the MS and MS/MS spectra of the snake species 1-3, respectively. Files are included as RAW and MZML format. Used instrument: LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer (Thermo, Bremen, Germany) with an Agilent 1260 HPLC system (Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany) using a reversed-phase Grace Vydac 218MS C18 (2.1 × 150 mm; 5 μm particle size) column. Modifications: UNIMOD:4 - \"Iodoacetamide derivative.\" Used protein database: Uniprot_8570_serpentes_reviewed_CandIso_2747_entries_230398.fasta

Fig. 6 in Integrated palynology and sedimentology of the Mississippian of the Tisdafine Basin (Eastern Anti-Atlas, Morocco)

Fig. 6 Palynofacies composition, palaeoenvironment and thermal maturity interpretations inferred for the studied section. Thermal maturity estimation of organic matter is compiled after several authors (e.g., the spore/pollen color changes correlated with TAI values are adapted from Pearson, 1984; the correlation of TAI and SCI values with hydrocarbon stages —immature up to overmature— are adapted from Hartkopf-Fröder et al., 2015). The palaeoenvironment interpretation (proximal–distal palynofacies), according to Jurkowska & Barski (2017). AOM: amorphous organic matter; Op-Eq: equidimensional opaque phytoclast; Op-la: lath-shaped opaque phytoclasts; TP: translucent phytoclast; MDOP: mean diameter of opaque phytoclasts. The mean diameters of the phytoclasts (in µm) were obtained by counting at least one hundred of phytoclasts from each sample; TAI: Thermal Alteration Index; SCI: Spore Color Index
