title: An Introduction to Proteome Bioinformatics.
abstract: High-throughput techniques are indispensable for aiding basic and translational research. Among them, recent advances in proteomics techniques have allowed biomedical researchers to characterize the proteome of multiple organisms. This remarkable advancement have been well complemented by proteome bioinformatics methods and tools. Proteome bioinformatics refers to the study and application of informatics in the field of proteomics. This chapter provides an overview of computational strategies, methods, and techniques reported in this book for bioinformatics analysis of protein data. An outline of many bioinformatics tools, databases, and proteomic techniques described in each of the chapters is given here.
