Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The large scale catologing of the structure and function of proteins in the human body is called ____
A
Genomics
B
Proteomics
C
Gene Study
D
Haplotypes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Proteomics is the complete evaluation of the function and structure of proteins to understand an organism’s nature. Mass spectrometry is an essential tool that is used for profiling proteins in the cell. However, biomarker discovery remains the major challenge of proteomics because of their complexity and dynamicity.

Detailed explanation-2: -Proteomics is the large-scale study of the structure and function of proteins. In its strictest sense, the word “proteome” refers to the set of proteins encoded by the genome, including the added variation of posttranslational modification.

Detailed explanation-3: -Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteomes. A proteome is a set of proteins produced in an organism, system, or biological context. We may refer to, for instance, the proteome of a species (for example, Homo sapiens) or an organ (for example, the liver).

Detailed explanation-4: -Structural proteomics is the application of protein chemistry and modern mass spectrometric techniques to problems such as the characterization of protein structures and assemblies and the detailed determination of protein-protein interactions.

Detailed explanation-5: -(proh-tee-OH-mix) The study of the structure and function of proteins, including the way they work and interact with each other inside cells.
