Brief Outline on Protein Biophysical Characterization in Proteomics

Proteomics is the study of vast numbers of proteins' expression, structure, relationships, and, to some extent, function at a high throughput level. A quantitative description of the stoichiometry, kinetics, and energetics of each protein complex in a biological pathway is also required for a true understanding of the functioning of a living cell. Traditional molecular biophysical studies help to understand these precise features of proteins on a smaller scale than proteomics, which focuses on individual proteins.
