Ginseng Metabolomic and Genomic Fermentation Analysis

A 33.7 KB Excel dataset details the enhancement of rare ginsenosides in Panax ginseng via solid-state fermentation by Aspergillus cristatus JH-5. It contains genomic and HPLC quantification results, authored by Fei Su and updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze HPLC quantification data to track the de novo accumulation of rare ginsenosides Rg3(S) and Rg3(R).
• Examine genomic data for candidate β-glucosidase genes (e.g., gene0147, gene2409) linked to saponin deglycosylation.
• Assess the 28.29 Mb genome sequence for the presence of Carbohydrate-Active enZymes (CAZymes) and absence of mycotoxin biosynthetic gene clusters.
• Correlate untargeted metabolomics findings with HPLC results to study fermentation-induced metabolome restructuring.

Strengths

• Includes specific HPLC quantification results, such as a total rare ginsenoside content of 0.23% (dry weight).
• Provides genomic analysis from a 28.29 Mb whole-genome sequencing of the Aspergillus cristatus JH-5 strain.
• Data is shared under a permissive CC BY 4.0 license, facilitating reuse.

Limitations

• The dataset is small at 33.7 KB, indicating limited scope and likely a summary of key findings rather than raw experimental data.
• Unknown row and column counts prevent assessment of data volume and feature granularity.
• Sample data is unavailable, hindering preview of data structure and values.
