Proteomics
Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins and proteomes. Proteomics studies are crucial in the investigation of various aspects related to proteins. It delves into the temporal and spatial patterns of protein expression, the rates of protein production, breakdown, and overall abundance in steady states. Moreover, it assists in identifying protein modifications, encompassing post-translational alterations like phosphorylation. Proteomics also sheds light on the dynamic movement of proteins across different subcellular compartments and their participation within metabolic pathways. Additionally, it helps in unravelling the complex network of protein-protein interactions, providing a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing biological processes.
The next tutorial in this collection provides an overview of proteomics and introduces EMBL-EBI’s resources relevant for proteomics studies. The resources included in this tutorial cover information about protein sequence features, function, and interactions:
