Summary I • Goals of proteomics • Identify and ascribe function to proteins under all biologically plausible conditions • Proteomics methods • 2-D gel electrophoresis for separating proteins on the basis of charge and molecular weight • Mass spectrometry for identifying proteins by measuring the mass-to-charge ratio of their ionized peptide fragments • Protein chips to identify proteins, to detect protein–protein interactions, to perform biochemical assays, and to study drug–target interactions
Summary II • Proteomics methods (continued) • Yeast two-hybrid method for studying protein–protein interactions • Biochemical genomics for high-throughput assays • Some accomplishments of proteomics • Example: yeast • Yeast two-hybrid method reveals interactome • Transcriptional regulatory networks deduced • Biochemical genomics uncovers new ORF functions • Subcellular localization of proteins
