What Is The Driver Of The Protein Sequencing Market?

The rise in genetic illness is expected to propel the growth of the protein sequencing market going forward. A genetic illness refers to any disease or disorder that is caused by abnormalities or mutations in an individual's genetic material, generally their DNA. The rise in genetic illness is caused due to genetic mutations that can occur spontaneously or be inherited from parents. Protein sequencing can help identify specific genetic variants responsible for causing diseases thereby helping identify protein biomarkers, which are molecules indicative of a particular disease state or physiological condition. For instance, in October 2024, according to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, a UK-based national charity, 11,148 people were living with cystic fibrosis (CF) in the UK in 2022, increasing to 11,318 in 2023. Therefore, the rise in genetic illness is driving the growth of the protein sequencing industry.
