Search Results for "diagnostic"

Metaproteomic analysis allows studying the interplay of organisms or functional groups and has become increasingly popular also for diagnostic purposes. However, difficulties arise due to the high sequence similarity between related organisms. Further, the state of conservation of proteins between species can be correlated with their expression level which can lead to significant bias in results and interpretation. These challenges are similar but not identical to the challenges arising in the analysis of metagenomic samples and require specific solutions. ...
