Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human oral cancer cells KB comparing control blank vector with KB cells transfected with a pcDNA-CD133
Project description:CD133 is a marker of cancer stem cells. DAP5 is a is a translation initiation factor. The goal of the experiment was to characterize the proteomic differences between CD133+/- cells in the WT vs DAP5 depleted background. To this aim, 4 populations of human cells were FACS sorted: shNT_CD133-, shNT CD133+, shDAP5_ CD133-, shDAP5_CD133+. The collected cell pellets were subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis.
