Examples

  • Future work includes proteomic analyses for the identification of key proteins and enzymes for lipid accumulation and storage, as well as metabolomic analysis, particularly in response to dissolved carbon.

Morphology

proteomic = proteome (semi-transparent) = proteome + ic

Formed regularly from 'proteome' + '-ic', but understanding requires knowledge of the technical noun 'proteome' (and the specialized '-ome' element).

Etymology

The word proteomic combines protein and the ending -ome, like in genome and biome, where protein comes from an old Greek root meaning 'first' and -ome means 'the whole set'. So, proteomic means the study of the whole set of proteins in a cell or organism.
