       Introduction

       1.1Background and Motivation

      The task of human genome sequencing was completed in 2003, and life science from then on stepped into the post-gene era. The research focuses are gradually shifting from accumulating data to methods to interpret the data, i.e. how to extract structural and functional information from sequence data. Post-genome sequencing research includes comparative genomics, structural genomics, functional genomics, proteomics, holistic biology and pharmacogenomics.

      The proteome1 is a dynamic concept that is not only different in different tissues and different cells of the same organism but is constantly changing throughout the developmental stages of the same organism until the final demise of that organism. The complex pattern of gene expression leads to a variety of complex life activities. In fact, each form of movement in the stages of life is the result of different combinations of specific protein groups that appear at different times and spaces. The sequence of the
