the human body expresses ~20,000 protein-coding genes (and over a million "proteoforms" - remixes of these proteins). routine blood tests only see <0.5% of what’s actually there. more advanced tests like Somascan could measure 11k protein targets. they've now been acquired by Illumina - who currently dominate dna sequencing. they now own the full biological stack (dna + proteins). i'm still learning but this seems like a bio/acc moment to accelerate drug discovery, diagnostics, and precision medicine?
