Preface Tools for Next Generation Quantitative Proteomics by Mass Spectrometry The proteome has been defined as the entire set of proteins expressed by a genome. The genome is relatively simple, and using today’s technology the human genome of an individual can be routinely sequenced. The dynamic nature of the proteome, and its heterogeneous structure with many possible post-translational modifications, make the task of fully sequencing the complete human proteome out of reach. On one hand, “gene-centric” proteomic approaches that focus on identifying the genes that code for the expressed proteins (which is distinct from characterizing the complete molecular sequences of the protein
