Study overview: 165 individuals from The Tromsø Study were followed from 1994–2013. Between 1994 and 1995, blood plasma and whole blood were collected; blood plasma and whole blood were processed and subsequently used for protein quantification by mass spectrometry and whole exome sequencing, respectively. These analyses identified 5,608 peptides and 664 proteins from plasma, and 3,148,863 variants from whole blood, across all individuals.
