PROTEOMICS: AN EVOLVING TECHNOLOGY IN LABORATORY MEDICINE
Journal Title: Internet Journal of Medical Update - Year 2010, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The rapid developments in both genomics and proteomics will allow scientists to define the molecular pathways in normal and diseased cells. With these models, researchers will have the ability to predict previously unknown interactions and verify such predictions experimentally. Novel proteins, cellular functions, and pathways will also be unravelled. It is hoped that understanding the connections between cellular pathways and the ability to identify their associated biomarkers will greatly reduce the suffering and loss of life due to diseases.
