HUPO
With new product and data releases, the pair of next-gen proteomic startups are showing progress in moving toward targeted applications of their technologies.
Called the π-HuB Consortium, the project aims to make China a global leader in proteomics while exploring questions of basic biology and disease.
The scientists believe mapping protein forms, including genetic variants and post-translationally modified forms, could drive biology research and tools development.
Human Proteome Project Hits 90 Percent Coverage of Predicted Proteins
A decade after its launch, the effort has detected almost 18,000 human proteins and is shifting its focus more on different protein forms and functional data.
The 2010s saw major strides made through several large-scale initiatives aimed at mapping the human proteome and developing approaches for clinical work.
