Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Bioinformatics is defined as a technique that utilizes computers and statistical data to interpret the biological information. Proteome is defined as the entire protein collection of an organism and the study of protein interactions is termed as Proteomics. Functional proteomics identifies the entire protein sequences of an organism. Functional genomics is defined as the technique that sequences the entire genome of an organism.
