Argentina is one of the most relevant countries in Latin America, playing a major role in regional economics, culture and science. Over the last 80 years, Argentinean history has been characterized by several upward and downward phases that had major consequences on the development of science in the country and most recently on proteomics. In this article, we characterize the evolution of Proteomics sciences in Argentina over the last decade and a half. We describe the proteomics publication output of the country in the framework of the regional and international contexts, demonstrating that Argentina is solidly anchored in a regional context, showing results similar to other emergent and Latin American countries, albeit still far from the European, American or Australian realities. We also provide a case-study on the importance of Proteomics to a specific sector in the area of food science: the use of bacteria of technological interest, highlighting major achievements obtained by Argentinean proteomics scientists. Finally, we provide a general picture of the endeavors being undertaken by Argentinean Proteomics scientists and their international collaborators to promote the Proteomics-based research with the new generation of scientists and PhD students in both Argentina and other countries in the Southern cone.

A abordagem proteômica permite identificar componentes proteicos, celulares e secreções. Desta forma, constitui uma ferramenta viável para o estudo das potenciais funções de proteínas e para a busca por marcadores proteicos de fenótipos específicos e/ou processos fisiológicos. Este trabalho teve por objetivo fazer uma revisão sobre esse tema e sua importância na biotecnologia do sêmen de machos domésticos. A composição da membrana espermática e do plasma seminal é de grande interesse, em virtude da sua influência nos eventos de fusão oócito-espermatozoide, fertilização e subsequente desenvolvimento embrionário. Diversos trabalhos vêm demonstrando o potencial da proteômica ligada à reprodução animal, a qual auxilia na identificação de marcadores de fertilidade ou de ejaculados aptos à congelação.
The proteomic approach allows the identification of proteins from tissues, cells and secretion. Thus, this tool is useful for the study of potential protein functions and search for markers of specific phenotypes and/or physiological events. This study aimed to review on the subject and its importance in semen biotechnology of several species. The composition of the sperm membrane and seminal plasma is of great interest because of its influence on sperm-oocyte fusion, fertilization and subsequent embryonic development. Several studies have demonstrated the potential of proteomics related to animal breeding, assisting in identifying markers for fertility or able to ejaculate process of freezing / thawing in males of several species.
