Proteomics: general strategies and application to nutritionally relevant proteins

Proteomics as a subset of applied genomics technologies will be a key area of biology during the first decade or two of the new Millennium, and that it will have major impact, both directly and indirectly, on nutritional science. The aim of this review is to summarize information about general strategies of proteome and its application to important food proteins (plant, animal, and microbial). Methods are also described for protein separation, identification and determination. This article covers papers published within the last decade. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
