Proteogenomics - (pronounced) (PROH-tee-oh-jeh-NOH mix) The study of how information about the DNA in a cell or organism relates to the proteins made by that cell or organism. This includes understanding how genes control when proteins are made and what changes occur to proteins after they are made that they can turn on and off. Proteogenomics can help researchers learn more about which proteins are involved in certain diseases, such as cancer, and can also be used to design new drugs that block those proteins
