Proteomics: The Functional Landscape of Life
Proteomics investigates the complete set of proteins expressed within biological systems. By studying protein abundance, structure, interactions, signaling pathways, and post-translational modifications, proteomics reveals the functional machinery driving cellular biology, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic discovery.
What is Proteomics?
Core Areas
Protein Identification
Characterizing proteins and their biological roles.
Mass Spectrometry
Profiling proteins through LC-MS/MS technologies.
Protein Interactions
Understanding signaling networks and molecular complexes.
Post-translational Modifications
Studying phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, and PTMs.
Biomarker Discovery
Identifying disease-associated proteins for diagnosis and therapy.
Systems Proteomics
Integrating proteomics with genomics and multi-omics systems biology.
