The set of proteins produced by a system or an organism, constitute its "proteomes." Proteomics is the large-scale study of these protein structures. Applied techniques such as protein fractionation, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics is integral to this discipline. Proteomics facilitates the identification of a diverse range of proteins, which varies according to the specific time frame and unique requirements or stresses experienced by a cell or organism. While processing and analyzing proteomics data presents significant challenges, its potential to unveil novel disease biomarkers holds immense value for clinical and diagnostic applications. This multidisciplinary field thrives on the rich genetic information gleaned from various genome projects. This textbook attempts to understand the multiple aspects that fall under the discipline of proteomics and how such concepts have practical applications. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in the field of proteomics.
