SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Confirmant Ltd., a provider of innovative bio-information, will preview its breakthrough Protein Atlas of the Human Genome at CHI's upcoming Genome Tri-Conference 2002, running from the 23rd of February to the 1st of March at the Santa Clara Convention Center.
Unlike existing genomics databases that use DNA/RNA information to predict genes and proteins, the underlying foundation of the Protein Atlas are the proteins themselves. Proteins are the true drivers of cellular function and therefore play a key role in the cause and treatment of disease.
The information contained in the Protein Atlas is experimentally derived using unique ...
