Chapter 29 - Application of high-throughput structural and functional genomic technologies in crop nutrition research

Abstract

Structural and functional genomics ventures intend to grow our underlying information on natural macromolecules while bringing down the normal expenses of structure and function assurance. Structural genomics (SG) focuses on the sequencing and mapping of genomes. While sequencing and providing the location of the entire set of genes in the genome, its efforts to ascertain each protein structure are encoded by the genome. Functional genomics, alternatively, focuses on the expression of genes and their functions and property. It tries to determine the interactions between genes and their products. Thus this chapter summarizes the application of structural and functional genomics in the field of nutrition research. Be that as it may, top primary science labs are substantially more proficient than the normal, and equivalent to SG fixates notwithstanding chipping away at testing structures. Also, functional genomics procedures are ideal for explaining the impacts of novel useful nourishments, dietary enhancements, and nutraceuticals on worldwide quality articulation and cell work without making suppositions about what to search for regarding hazard. Similar methodologies are likewise straightforwardly pertinent to the appraisal of the security of hereditarily controlled nourishments.
