چکیده

Genome-scale model reconstruction represents a major tool in the field of Metabolic Engineering .This paper reports on a study about data integration issues in the process of genome-scale reconstruction of the metabolic model of the bacterium Zymomonas mobilis, a promising organism for bioethanol production. Data is retrieved from the Entrez Gene, KEGG, BioCyc and Brenda databases, and the several processes involved in data integration from these sources are described, as well as the data quality issues.

Investigation on metabolism of cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer using a genome scale metabolic model and microarray data

Objective(s): Many cancer cells show significant resistance to drugs that kill drug sensitive cancer cells and non-tumor cells and such resistance might be a consequence of the difference in metabolism. Therefore, studying the metabolism of drug resistant cancer cells and comparison with drug sensitive and normal cell lines is the objective of this research. Material and Methods:Metabolism of c...
