List of omics topics in biology

Inspired by the terms genome and genomics, other words to describe complete biological datasets, mostly sets of biomolecules originating from one organism, have been coined with the suffix -ome and -omics. Some of these terms are related to each other in a hierarchical fashion. For example, the genome contains the ORFeome, which gives rise to the transcriptome, which is translated to the proteome. Other terms are overlapping and refer to the structure and/or function of a subset of proteins (e.g. glycome, kinome).

An omicist is a scientist who studies omeomics, cataloging all the “omics” subfields.[1]

Omics.org is a Wiki that collects and alphabetically lists all the known "omes" and "omics."[2]

EnviromeEnviromicsGene related environment factors (envirome)
EpigenomeEpigenomicsEpigenetic modificationsMolecular geneticsEpigenomics is the study of the complete set of epigenetic modifications on the genetic material of a cell, collectively known as the epigenome
Exposome (2005)ExposomicsAn individual's environmental exposures, including in the prenatal environmentMolecular geneticsA proposed term and field of study of the disease-causing effects of environmental factors (the "nurture" component of "nature vs. nurture").[4]
Exposome (2009)Composite occupational exposures and occupational health problemsOccupational safety and healthThe proposers of this term were aware of the previous term as used above but proposed to apply the term to a new field.[5][6]
ExomeExomicsExons in a genomeMolecular Genetics
FoodomeFoodomicsFood and Nutrition issues related to bioactivity, quality, safety and traceability of foods through the application and integration of advanced omics technologies to improve consumer's well-being, health, and confidence.NutritionThe term was first defined in 2009[7]
GenomeGenomics
(Classical genetics)
Genes
(DNA sequences/Chromosomes)
Genetics"Genome" refers to the set of all genes in an organism. However, "genome" was coined decades before it was discovered that most DNA is "non-coding" and not part of a gene; thus, "genome" originally referred to the entire collection of DNA within an organism. Today, both definitions are used, depending on the context.[8]
GlycomeGlycomicsGlycansGlycobiology
Hologenome Hologenomics Genomes of community members (i.e., holobionts) Metagenomics
InterferomeInterferomicsInterferonsImmunologyAlso a database of the same name.
InteractomeInteractomicsAll interactionsThe term "interactomics" is generally not used. Instead, interactomes are considered the study of systems biology.[9][10]
IonomeIonomicsInorganic biomoleculesMolecular Biology
KinomeKinomicsKinasesMolecular BiologyProteins that add a phosphate group
LipidomeLipidomics[11]LipidsBiochemistry
MechanomeMechanomicsThe mechanical systems within an organism
MetabolomeMetabolomicsMetabolitesAll products of a biological reaction (including intermediates)
MetagenomeMetagenomicsGenetic material found in an environmental sampleMolecular BiologyThe genetic material is assumed to contain DNA from multiple organisms and therefore multiple genomes, hence the inclusion of the prefix meta-.
MetallomeMetallomicsMetals and metalloids
