Abstract
The recent completion of major milestones of the Human Genome Project has demonstrated the impact of the “omics revolution” on modern research in the life sciences (International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium, 2001; Venter et al., 2001). In turn, the enormous degree of complexity inherent in genomic information has revealed the limitations of purely genomic investigation. Recent research has extended to the study of the proteome, defined as the total protein complement encoded for by a genome. The enormity of this effort becomes evident when it is considered that the estimated 30,000 – 40,000 genes in the human are predicted to yield as many as 1 million distinct proteins due to processes such as transcriptional splicing and post-translational modifications. As such, proteomic analysis has stimulated dramatic technological advances for protein quantification, characterization, and identification (Gygi et al., 1999; Geng et al., 2000; Regnier et al., 2000; Barnes and Clemmer, 2001; McLuckey et al., 2001; Valentine et al., 2001).
