The continuum of biological organization and function addressed by omic research. The three bio-molecules listed (DNA, RNA, and protein) constitute the Central Dogma of Biology. Omic approaches that target these molecules can at best infer function. Proving function requires metabolomics and other functional or translational approaches not covered in this review (Scharf, 2015).
