2.3 Interest of proteomics In CF-related research, proteomics appears as an interesting complementary way to perform large-scale analysis of gene expression. Proteomic investigation of a biological system should ideally detect all proteins and their functional response to a stimulus. Even though this purpose is ambitious, given the present technical limitations, it allows some changes in the proteome or at least in a significant segment of it to be identified. Among the most important li...
