Most proteins function as part of various complexes, forming via stable and dynamic protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The profiling of PPIs expands the fundamental knowledge about the structures, functions, and regulation patterns of protein complexes and intracellular molecular machineries. Protein interactomics aims at solving three main tasks: (1) identification of protein partners and parts of complex intracellular structures; (2) analysis of PPIs parameters (affinity, molecular-recognition specificity, kinetic rate constants, and thermodynamic-parameters determination); (3) the study of the functional role of novel PPIs. The purpose of this work is to update the current state and prospects of multi-omics approaches to profiling of proteins involved in the formation of stable complexes. Methodological paradigm includes a development of protein-extraction and -separation techniques from tissues or cellular lysates and subsequent identification of proteins using mass-spectrometry analysis. In addition, some aspects of authors' experimental platforms, based on high-performance size-exclusion chromatography, procedures of molecular fishing, and protein identification, as well as the possibilities of interactomic taxonomy of each protein, are discussed.
