This chapter will address the main omics approaches used in studies involving the genus
Corynebacterium, Gram-positive microorganisms that can be isolated from many diverse
environments. Currently, the genus Corynebacterium has more than 130 highly diversified
species, many of which present medical, veterinary and biotechnological importance,
such as C. diphtheriae, C. pseudotuberculosis, C. ulcerans and C. glutamicum. Due to the
wide application in these fields, several omics methodologies are used to better elucidate
the species belonging to this genus, such as genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics.
The genomic era has contributed to the development of more advanced and complex
approaches that enable the increase of generated data, and consequently the advance on
the structural, functional and dynamic knowledge of biological systems. |
