This article discusses the concept of proteomes and the importance of modelling them. It explores methods such as structure-based and sequence-based approaches for functional genomics. The Bioverse platform is introduced as a tool for exploring relationships among molecules and systems, including the prediction of protein interaction networks.

Modelling, comparison, and analysis of proteomes Ram Samudrala University of Washington
What is a “proteome”? For any protein, we wish to: { ANNOTATION } EXPRESSION + INTERACTION All proteins of a particular system (organelle, cell, organism) What does it mean to “model a proteome”? • figure out what it looks like (structure or form) • understand what it does (function) Repeat for all proteins in a system Understand the relationships between all of them
Why should we model proteomes? ? Pragmatic reasons: - rational drug design and treatment of disease - protein and genetic engineering - build networks to model cellular pathways - study organismal function and evolution Intellectual challenge: Because it’s there!
