Proteomics has matured into a discipline capable of quantifying nearly every protein encoded by the genome, yet it remains largely blind to the true operational units of physiology: proteoforms. Each proteoform—defined by a specific sequence and post-translationally modified state—represents a unique molecular identity with distinct chemical, functional, and structural properties. This review proposes the proteoform functor: a mathematical map between the abstract proteoform state space and the realised physiological space of biological function—and ultimately complex phenotypes.

One of the major challenges in precision oncology is the identification of pathogenic, actionable variants and the selection of personalized treatments. We present Onkopus, a variant interpretation framework based on a modular architecture, for interpreting and prioritizing genetic alterations in cancer patients. A multitude of tools and databases are integrated into Onkopus to provide a comprehensive overview about the consequences of a variant, each with its own semantic, including pathogenicity predictions, allele frequency, biochemical and protein features, Show less
