Use and application of bioinformatics for the characterization of plant proteomes

Abstract

Proteomics and some other cutting-edge technologies have generated information clusters in sequencing and protein studies for plants, which can be used in other areas, such as food in quality control, pharmacological in allergens, characterizations of organisms in studies biological and agronomic for vegetables. The following is a description of the information that can be found in the databases (DB) and their interrelations with other specialized DB, of all the references to describe a protein. For this investigation we used a storage protein, Glutelin-2 in (Zea mays), we show some of the interrelated DB that can offer information for multiple studies of proteins in plants like UniProt KB and STRING-DB.
