Question

The complete proteins produced by an organism at any one time is called:

• A. Transcriptome
• B. Proteome
• C. Lipidome
• D. Metagenome

Hint:

Differentiate between 'ome' terminologies such as transcriptome, proteome, and lipidome to identify their specific biological significance.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The proteome refers to the entire set of proteins expressed by a cell, tissue, or organism at a specific time. Unlike the transcriptome (which covers RNA molecules), the proteome provides insights into the functional molecules driving biological processes.
