Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The term proteome is coined by Marc Wilkins in 1994. This term is applied to many different types of systems in biology such as cellular proteome, complete proteome and so on. In eukaryotes, proteome can be greater than genome.

Why can the transcriptome not be used to predict the proteome with complete accuracy?
a. It cannot be sequenced like the genome can be.
b. The transcriptome is too dynamic to be used to make predictions.
c. Not all genes are transcribed.
d. Many transcripts are alternatively spliced to produce different proteins.
How is translation different in prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
a. In prokaryotes, because they do not have a nucleus, the translation of mRNA occurs while it is being transcribed b. In prokaryotes, pre-mRNA translation before transcription occurs within the cell
c.In prokaryotes, reverse trancriptase simultaneously translates and transcribes mRNAd.In prokaryotes, functional mRNA allows for translation to be skipped, and proteins are made during transcription
