Proteomics
:
analyze
proteins:
ex)
antigen-antibody
reaction
:
to
identify
a
particular
cell
surface
protein
we
pick
out
the
antibody
that
reacts
with
that
protein/antigen
and
then
we
apply
that
to
the
cell
and
then
they
flare
up
and
you
can
figure
out
where
exactly
that
antigen
is
●
Gene
expression
○
Transcription
:
unwinding
and
copying
the
DNA
into

○
Translation
:
taking
