Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proteomics is the study of proteins, including their structures, functions, and interactions. Thus, proteomics would be used to compare protein sequences between closely related species. It would not be used for comparing DNA sequences (A), gene expression during embryonic development (B), shotgun cloned sequences (D), or prokaryotic genomes (E).
