Proteome-wide Systems Genetics to Identify Functional Regulators of Complex Traits.
2021
Proteomic technologies now enable the rapid quantification of thousands of proteins across genetically diverse samples. Integration of these data with systems-genetics analyses is a powerful approach to identify new regulators of economically important or disease-relevant phenotypes in various populations. In this review, we summarize the latest proteomic technologies and discuss technical challenges for their use in population studies. We demonstrate how the analysis of correlation structure and loci mapping can be used to identify genetic factors regulating functional protein networks and complex traits. Finally, we provide an extensive summary of the use of proteome-wide systems genetics throughout fungi, plant, and animal kingdoms and discuss the power of this approach to identify candidate regulators and drug targets in large human consortium studies.
