Membranome is the set of biological membranes existing in a specific organism. The term was proposed by British biologist Thomas Cavalier-Smith "Membranome and Membrane Heredity in Development and Evolution" by Thomas Cavalier-Smith, in Organelles, Genomes and Eukaryote Phylogeny An Evolutionary Synthesis in the Age of Genomics Editors: Robert P. Hirt; David S. Horner to discuss epigenetics of biological membranes. The term was also used to define the entire set of membrane proteins in an organismGhosh D, Beavis RC, Wilkins JA, The identification and characterization of membranome components, JOURNAL OF PROTEOME RESEARCH Volume: 7 Issue: 4 Pages: 1572-1583. or a combination of membrane proteome and lipidome.
