Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics

"The exquisite selectivity, sensitivity, and specificity of mass spectrometry make it an unrivalled technology for detection and identification of biopolymers and metabolites derived from complex body tissue and fluids. Within the '-omics' revolution, mass spectrometry has emerged as the premier platform of choice in metabolomic and proteomic analyses."
Naylor, S. (2002) Functional Genomics 18-21

"Proteomics includes not only the identification and quantification of proteins, but also the determination of their localization, modifications, interactions, activities, and, ultimately, their function."
Fields, S. (2001) Science 291: 1221-1224
