Project description:UM1 and UM2 are paired cell lines generated from a oral cancer patient [Nakayama, et al Invas. Metast., 18 (1998), pp. 219–228]. UM1 is highly invasive and exhibits elevated metastatic potential as compared to UM2.
Project description:Based on the genome sequencing and gene annotation, we analyzed the alginate lyases and other genes related to alginate metabolism of strain Vibrio sp. C42, with the highest alginate-degrading activity. Combined with proteome measurement, we proposed its alginate metabolic pathways.
