Genomics and Proteomics
The term genomics refers to the biotechnology discipline which deals with decoding the human genome.
Admittedly, the genes are characteristic and necessary for what occurs in a cell, but proteins are the actual carriers of the cell functions defined by the genes.
Consequently, in order to understand the cellular processes, it is necessary to record and analyze the totality of the existing proteins with their numerous interactions (proteome research, proteomics).
