What Technologies are Used in Genomic and Proteomic Studies?
Several advanced technologies are employed in these studies. For genomic analysis, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) allows for rapid and comprehensive sequencing of genomes. CRISPR technology is also used for genome editing and functional studies. In proteomics, mass spectrometry is a critical tool for identifying and quantifying proteins. Other techniques include two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and protein microarrays.
