What Areproteomes And Proteomics.?
The proteome is the complement of proteins expressed by an organism, tissue or cell type. Proteomics, the study of proteomes, characterisation of patterns of gene expression at the protein level or defined more widely as the link between proteins and genomes. Importance of proteomics is to identify proteins with altered levels of expression. Changes in protein expression levels are associated with disease states, drug treatment, cellular stress, genetic manipulation or changes in metabolism.
