Outline of R&D
We will develop an integrated proteome database jPOST (Japan Proteame STandard Repository / Database) containing standardized, integrated and unified proteomic information from a wide variety of biological species with posttranslational modifications at various absolute expression levels. Based on the international standard repositories and the ability to re-analyze the raw data to produce higher-precision data, we will further develop more functions for jPOST to receive wider ranges of proteomic data. In addition, by linking with other omics data, we can map the biomolecules to signal transduction network and metabolic network to elucidate their cellular functions. The jPOST also accepts the proteogenomics data as well as metaproteomics data from gut microbiota, metabolomics data and glycomics data.
