Abstract:

MS-based proteomics has undergone rapid advancements in recent years. As infectious diseases cause millions of death each year, it has become increasingly important to study host-pathogen interactions on the molecular level. Recently, proteomic analyses of pathogens and their mammalian host have received widespread attentions. Here we review the major progress made in this area within the last decade.

Key words: Proteomics, Mass spectrometry, Pathogen, Host, Infection
