Recent advances in biochemistry are firmly rooted in the use of high throughout technologies to determine the functional aspects of macromolecules. While genomics aims to increase our understanding of an organism’s entire genome, proteomics aims to reveal the structure and function of extensive networks of interacting proteins that make up the entire complement of proteins produced by an organism.
