Examples of proteomics in the following topics:

  • Proteomics

    • Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions.
    • Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions.
    • Proteomics confirms the presence of the protein and provides a direct measure of the quantity present.
    • Proteomics typically gives us a better understanding of an organism than genomics.
    • One goal of proteomics is to identify which proteins interact.
  • Metabolomics

    • Thus, while mRNA gene expression data and proteomic analyses do not tell the whole story of what might be happening in a cell, metabolic profiling can give an instantaneous snapshot of the physiology of that cell.
    • One of the challenges of systems biology and functional genomics is to integrate proteomic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic information to give a more complete picture of living organisms.
    • The word was coined in analogy with transcriptomics and proteomics.
    • Like the transcriptome and the proteome, the metabolome is dynamic, changing from second to second.
  • Nanoarchaeum and Aciduliprofundum

    • The genome and proteome composition of N. equitans are marked with the signatures of dual adaptation – one to high temperature and the other to obligatory parasitism (or symbiosis).
  • The Degradation of Synthetic Chemicals in Soils and Water

    • In recent years, advances in genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics studies of environmental microorganisms have revealed a tremendous potential in metabolic pathways.
