bioinformatics proteomics

Proteomics is an interdisciplinary domain which has benefited a lot from the genetic information of the Human Genome Project (HGP); it is also arising scientific research and exploration of proteomes from the complete level of intracellular protein composition, structure, and its own singular activity patterns. It is a valuable component of functional genomics. Proteomics research involves the separation, identification, qualitative, quantitative, and functional characterization of the entire protein profile of a given cell, tissue, and/or organism. Studying proteome also includes the profiling of isoforms, mutants, post-translational modifications, splice variants and protein-protein interactions. In this process, bioinformatics methods play a vital role for the analysis of proteomics.
