[Progress in human disease proteomics].

In the post-genomic era, with the accomplishment of the sequence mapping of human genome, one of the most important tasks for life science is the explanation and identification of human genome, that is, about 1/3 genes of human genome and their functions need further revealment and verification on the level of protein. In the field of functional proteomics, the human disease proteomics shows great potential in the discovery of new molecular targets and biomarkers for medicine and biopharmacy. In this article, we have made a concise discussion on the current status, existing problems and future development in the research of human disease proteomics both in and out of China.
