In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Meaning of Proteomics 2. Types of Proteomics 3. Significance. Meaning of Proteomics: The term proteomics was coined in mid 1990s at the back drop of successful genomics. In bioinformatics point of view proteomics is the databases of protein sequence, databases of predicted protein structures and more recently, databases of protein expression analysis. [...]
In this article we will discuss about the antisense RNA in post harvesting improvement of plants. Engineering of Fruit Ripening Process: Efficacy of antisense RNA technology in post harvesting has been implicated well in extending shelf life of fruits, vegetables and vase life of flowers. Infact the first genetically modified products commercialized in markets were calgenes flavr savr tomatoes. Antisense [...]
The following points highlight the three main omic technologies in plant biotechnology. The technologies are: 1. Transcriptomics 2. Metabolomics 3. Phenomics. Technology # 1. Transcriptomics: Utility of microarray and sequence-based process to expression profiling fueled additional approach to current genomic data within bioinformatics. Microarray technology helps in gene expression analysis in many plant species. Sequence based methods have real potential [...]
