Proteomics is a new methodological and conceptual approach to the study of live systems, which aims to map the whole proteom - the protein complement of genome. It aspires to describe quantitatively and qualitatively all proteins present at the given moment in the cell, tissue or the organism. The principal tools of proteomics are separation techniques based on electrophoresis and chromatograph...

The most functional compartment encoded by the genome is proteome. Therefore study of proteome i.e. proteomics is the promising approach in identification, separation and quantitation of functional changes. It aims to gain a comprehensive understanding of the expressions, modifications, interactions, and regulation of proteins in cells. The power of two-dimensional electrophoresis and advances ...

The recent development of mass spectrometry, i.e., high sensitivity, automation of protein identification and some post-translational modifications (PTMs) significantly increased the number of large-scale proteomics projects. However, there are still considerable limitations as none of the currently available proteomics techniques allows the analysis of an entire proteome in a single step proce...

MOTIVATION Targeted mass spectrometry comprises a set of powerful methods to obtain accurate and consistent protein quantification in complex samples. To fully exploit these techniques, a cross-platform and open-source software stack based on standardized data exchange formats is required. RESULTS We present TAPIR, a fast and efficient Python visualization software for chromatograms and peaks...

Human saliva is a biological fluid with enormous diagnostic potential. Because saliva can be non-invasively collected, it provides an attractive alternative for blood, serum or plasma. It has been postulated that the blood concentrations of many components are reflected in saliva. Saliva harbors a wide array of proteins, which can be informative for the detection of diseases. Profiling the prot...

The mzQuantML standard from the HUPO Proteomics Standards Initiative has recently been released, capturing quantitative data about peptides and proteins, following analysis of MS data. We present a Java application programming interface (API) for mzQuantML called jmzQuantML. The API provides robust bridges between Java classes and elements in mzQuantML files and allows random access to any part...

The proteome is defined as the protein complement to the genome. Proteomics is the study of the proteome. Several techniques are frequently used in proteomics; these include 2-hybrid systems, 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and mass spectrometry. Systems biology is a scientific approach that takes into account the complex relationships among and between genes and proteins and determines how ...

Biomarkers allowing early detection of disease or therapy control have a huge influence in curing a disease. A wide variety of methods were applied to find new biomarkers. In contrast to methods focused on DNA or mRNA techniques, approaches considering proteins as potential biomarker candidates have the advantage that proteins are more diverse than DNA or RNA and are more reflective of a biolog...

Proteomics in respiratory allergic diseases has such a battery of techniques and programs that one would almost think there is nothing impossible to find, invent or mold. All the resources we document here are involved solving problems diseases, both diagnostic prognostic treatment, immunotherapy development. The main perspectives, according this version, three strands and/or lockout immunologi...

Proteome was coined by Marc Wilkins, which he used for the entire complement of protein expressed by a genome, cell, tissue or organism. Proteomics is the study and characterization of complete set of proteins that are present in cell, organ, or organism at a given time [1]. Unlike genomes proteomes have both temporal and spatial variations which escalate the complexity of its study. However, t...
