proteomics

The large-scale study of proteomes, which are the entire sets of proteins produced or modified by an organism or system.
Noun

This term refers to a specialized field of molecular biology. It is used primarily in academic, medical, and scientific registers to describe the systemic analysis of proteins, contrasting with genomics, which focuses on the genome.

Grammatically, the word ends in -ics, a common suffix for sciences and disciplines (like physics or mathematics). Despite the plural appearance of the suffix, it is treated as a singular mass noun and takes a singular verb. It is uncountable and does not have a plural form.
