proteomics[‚prōd·ē′äm·iks] (cell and molecular biology) The separation, identification, and characterization of the complete set of proteins present in the various cells of an organism. proteomicsenUK
proteomics (prō-tē-om'iks), The identification and study of the proteins of a cell, tissue, or organism to determine their three-dimensional structure and to map their interactive networks to discover their function and the structure of drugs with the potential to interact in a therapeutic way with disease-associated proteins; goal is not only formulation of new drugs but also diagnostics and determining the presence of or absence of specific proteins associated with a disease or health. See also: proteome, proteome image. proteomics (prō′tē-ō′mĭks)n. (used with a sing. verb) The analysis of the expression, localizations, functions, and interactions of the proteins expressed by the genetic material of an organism.proteomics The study of the proteome-the proteins expressed by the approximately 22,000 genes in the GENOME or by a cell. The form and quantity of the proteins produced by a cell cannot be fully predicted from DNA or RNA analysis alone. This is because of the controls and the many modifications that can occur in the stages between transcription and protein formation. Thus the totality of the genes can result in at least several hundred thousand different proteins. Proteomics includes the study of the factors that cause this multiplication. The discipline is being applied effectively to cancer studies.proteomics characterization of the PROTEOME by cataloguing and analysing the proteins. This involves: - (a) identifying each protein in the proteome;
- (b) determining the sequence (see AMINO-ACID SEQUENCE of the proteins and constructing a database;
- (c) determining the amount of protein in different cell types and at different stages of development and
- (d) investigating the interactions between proteins.
