Introduction to Genomics and Proteomics for Clinical Discovery and Development

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Translational Bioinformatics ((TRBIO,volume 6))

Abstract

In the post-genomic era, Genomics and Proteomics has become the major OMICS research areas utilised to understand biological processes and disease pathophysiology that leads to drug development and diagnostic assays.

Proteome-based approaches are important complements to genomic data and provide crucial information of the target driver molecules and their post-translational modifications, where informatics and standardizations are of key importance.

The Chromosome initiative of the Human Proteome Project currently annotates the number of proteins that are coded by the genome. This chapter gives an introduction to Genomics and Proteomics for Clinical Discovery and Development.
