Chapter 24, Problem 2CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reasons for the proteome of a given species being larger than its genome.
Introduction:
The complete set of chromosomes present in an individual is known as genome and the study of the complete genome is known as genomics. The complete set of proteins in an individual is known as proteome and understanding the structure as well as the function of all the proteins is known as proteomics.
