Advanced Principles of Proteomics

The proteome is the complete set of proteins that are produced by a living organism or system. It is subject to modification due to changes in requirement and stresses that an organism undergoes. The study of proteins is under the discipline of proteomics. Protein detection with antibodies, antibody-free protein detection, hybrid technologies and high-throughput proteomic technologies are prominent methodologies that are used for the detection and analysis of proteins. The study of proteomics has aided in new drug-discovery and in the understanding of complex plant-insect interactions. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of proteomics. The various advancements are glanced at and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
