Industry <strong>Analysis</strong><br />

<strong>Global</strong> Industry Overview<br />

• Proteomic research inherently requires huge capital investments and<br />

historically, it has yielded poor revenues. Pharmaceutical companies have<br />

hesitated in adopting the proteomics technologies in their drug<br />

development pipeline as they have been wary of premium pricing.<br />

• However, today public funding institutions are giving importance to this<br />

growing biological discipline next to comparative genomics. The proteomics<br />

market is considered an emerging area with immense potential. In fact,<br />

Governments and federal ministries in three major European countries,<br />

namely the United Kingdom, France and Germany, have allocated thematic<br />

priorities to nurture the growth of this market. This has resulted in greater<br />

industrialization of this field, which in turn, has boosted the confidence of<br />

companies to invest in this fast-paced and dynamic arena. Low return on<br />

investment that can dissuade potential entrants in proteomics technology<br />

markets has thus been offset by increasing public funding.<br />

• The increasing relevance of protein-protein interactions and protein<br />

analytics in drug discovery as well as clinical diagnostics has highlighted<br />

the importance of proteome research. Technological advancements in<br />

protein separation technologies and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis<br />

are likely to usher in a ubiquitous approach to assess differential protein<br />

expressions. Maximum utility of expression proteomics tools in the target<br />

discovery phase of drug development is likely to trigger reliable separation<br />

and identification of low abundant proteins with poor expression levels.<br />

Moreover, the development of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization<br />

(MALDI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) technologies has enlarged the<br />

scope of building versatile mass spectrometers, considered the cornerstone<br />

of proteomics. The improved mass spectrometers are likely to have<br />

enhanced functionalities of automation and compatibility with other<br />

proteomics equipment.<br />
