Peptides play important roles in human physiology. They present as intact peptides or can arise from protein degradation. Regardless of the source, peptidomics—the characterization of intact peptides in a biological sample—is fast emerging as an approach to uncover another layer in human health and disease.
Metabolomics—often referred to as the youngest of the omics—provides key insight into phenotype. However, bulk metabolomics requires the homogenization of the sample and is thus unable to discern metabolic differences at a cellular level.
Precision medicine is poised to transform healthcare, with biobanks being identified as a key enabler to bring it to fruition by 2030 by putting new, extended datasets at the disposal of pharmaceutical researchers and healthcare professionals. — by Marilyn Matz
