Diverse genome organization strategies for polysaccharide utilization in the oceans

Show abstract
Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) drive the turnover of polysaccharides in the oceans. However, the scale of diversity in polysaccharide utilization and genome organization strategies has yet to be characterized, particularly in marine ecosystems. In this paper, we introduce mpcgcdb.com as an interactive web catalog for marine CAZyme gene clusters, their associated metagenome-assembled genomes, and relevant enzyme families found in marine metagenomic samples. This database contains nearly 290,000 marine CAZyme gene clusters from more than 22,000 genomes, enabling user-initiated exploratory visualizations for genome organization networks and enzyme phylogeny. This tool will assist researchers in developing hypotheses about gene function, connecting species to metabolic niches, and identifying gaps where future work is needed to understand different pathways in marine glycan cycling.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
