What does determining the genome of simpler organisms allow?

the sequences of the proteins that derive from the genetic code (the proteome) of the organism to be determined

Why is determining the proteome of simpler organisms important?

it may have many applications, including the identification of potential antigens for use in vaccine production

Why can knowledge of the genome not easily be translated into the proteome in more complex organisms?

due to the presence of:

non-coding DNA (introns)

regulatory genes
