Proteomics (adapted from Wikipedia)

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. Proteins are vital parts of living organisms, as they are the main components of the physiological metabolic pathways of cells. The term "proteomics" was first coined in 1997 to make an analogy with genomics, the study of the genes. The word "proteome" is a blend of "protein" and "genome", and was coined by Marc Wilkins in 1994 while working on the concept as a PhD student. The proteome is the entire complement of proteins, including the modifications made to a particular set of proteins, produced by an organism or system. This will vary with time and distinct requirements, or stresses, that a cell or organism undergoes. LinkIconLink to Wikipedia

In the past, two-dimentional gel (2D gel) electrophoresis based methods were generally used for proteomics. However, recently, a novel approach so-called shotgun proteomics becoming popular.

MASCP.jpgProteomics has become a critical tool in the functional understanding of plant processes at the molecular level. Proteomics-based studies have contributed to the ever expanding array of data in modern biology, with many generating web portals and online resources. Many of these resources reflect specialist research areas with significant and novel information that is not currently captured by centralized repositories. Consequently the MASCP Proteomics Subcommittee have developed a proteomics aggregation utility called the MASCP Gator, that pulls information on-the-fly from a variety of proteomics resources.
