Transcriptomics and Proteomics

The transcriptomics refers to study of transcriptome, which is a dynamic levels of RNA transcripts vary during response to certain conditions in the cell or in different developmental stages of the cell. RNA- sequencing or Transcriptome sequencing is a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based approach for RNA profiling and analysis by measuring the transcriptomic profiles through microarrays, RNA-seq etc... Proteomics refers to study of large-scale proteomes, which is the set of proteins produced in an organism or biological environment. One of the important objectives of Systems biology is to understand the regulation of cell behaviour by measuring the proteomic profiles through techniques such as gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.
