GUTIERREZ-NAVA, Angélica  y  MAYORGA-REYES, Lino. Post-genomics Age in Biomedicine. Rev. mex. cienc. farm [online]. 2011, vol.42, n.2, pp.7-13. ISSN 1870-0195.

The human genome was completely sequenced, its contents not only determines the expression of genes but other elements responsible for its regulation. The total sequence was reached through an effort of the scientific international community. Since its publication, studies of the gene expression under normal and pathological conditions gave way to the post-genomic age, which its fundamental aim is to know the function of each gene and their respective protein to monitor the susceptibility and progression of disease development becoming a big challenge to improve global health. The application of genomics in biomedicine, boost the evolution of other disciplines trying to elucidate the mechanisms that control the basic cellular processes. This review shows the retrospective and perspective of genomics and proteomics as protagonist of the story.

Palabras llave : genomics; proteomics; biomedicine.
