In the recent past, next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches have heralded the omics era. With NGS data burgeoning, there arose a need to disseminate the omic data better. Proteogenomics has been vividly used for characterising the functions of candidate genes and is applied in ascertaining various diseased phenotypes, including cancers. However, not much is known about the role and application of proteogenomics, especially Prostate Cancer (PCa). In this review, we outline the need for proteogenomic approaches, their applications and their role in PCa.
