Vitamin B 12 and B 12-Proteins
This timely and topical book reviews the important developments in the 'B12-field' with regard to biological, chemical, pharmaceutical and medicinal aspects. In over 30 chapters the approx. 100 internationally renowned authors give deeper insight into the prospering research activites around B12. This book is a must for everybody who works with or on vitamins and porphyrine (-like) ring systems. Topics of particular interest include: Biosynthesis of Vitamin B12; B12-catalyzed enzymatic reactions and their mechanisms; structural B12-chemistry; reactivity of B12 and B12-models; structure and function of B12-proteins; metabolic transport and storage of B12; pathological effects of B12-deficiency.
Chemistry and Biochemistry of B12
A Definitive New Reference for the Latest Advances in B_12 Chemistry and Biochemistry Over the past decade, the field of B_12 research has been revolutionized by such major breakthroughs as the unraveling of the entire biosynthetic pathway for this important vitamin. This comprehensive compendium surveys the wealth of information that has accumulated, covering in one volume virtually all aspects of the field-from physical and inorganic chemistry to enzymology, microbiology, medicine, and diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Edited by Dr. Ruma Banerjee, a highly respected and active member of the B_12 community, this work provides B_12 researchers with a dependable and up-to-date referenc...
The Chemistry of Natural Products
This book reviews in a concise and manageable way the progress in all key areas of natural products chemistry since 1984. The most significant advances are highlighted over a wide field of chemistry, structure, synthesis and biosynthesis. This book provides a unique and superb entry into the vast literature on the subject.
Theoretical Biochemistry
Theoretical chemistry has been an area of tremendous expansion and development over the past decade; from an approach where we were able to treat only a few atoms quantum mechanically or make fairly crude molecular dynamics simulations, into a discipline with an accuracy and predictive power that has rendered it an essential complementary tool to experiment in basically all areas of science. This volume gives a flavour of the types of problems in biochemistry that theoretical calculations can solve at present, and illustrates the tremendous predictive power these approaches possess.A wide range of computational approaches, from classical MD and Monte Carlo methods, via semi-empirical and DFT approaches on isolated model systems, to Car-Parinello QM-MD and novel hybrid QM/MM studies are covered. The systems investigated also cover a broad range; from membrane-bound proteins to various types of enzymatic reactions as well as inhibitor studies, cofactor properties, solvent effects, transcription and radiation damage to DNA.
Dendrimers
Dendrimers are a class of highly branched molecules that combine the properties of polymers and small discrete molecules. One classified among the exotic molecules of chemistry, dendrimers have attracted considerable attention in recent years, as their unique host/guest properties and their capability of being functionalized in the periphery as well in the core have led to new materials with a great potential for applications. This volume presents the state of art in this blossoming area, written by pioneers in the fields. Covering the synthetic, supramolecular, stereochemical, host/guest and polymer chemistry of dendritic and hyperbranched molecules, this volume explains both theoretical and practical aspects, including chirality reactivity, mechanism, material properties and biological relevance.
Chemical Aspects of Enzyme Biotechnology
The Industry-University Cooperative Chemistry Program has sponsored seven previous international symposia covering a wide variety of topics of interest to industrial and academic chemists. The eighth IUCCP symposium, held March 19-22, 1990, at Texas A&M University, represents a deviation from the former symposia, in that it is the first of a two-symposium series dedicated to the rapidly moving new field of industrial biochemistry that has beco~e known as biotechnology. Biotechnology is really not a new discipline, but rather is a term coined to describe the new and exciting commercial applications of biochemistry. The development of the field of biotechnology is a direct result of recombinan...
The Biosynthesis of the Tetrapyrrole Pigments
Prestigious contributors summarize current knowledge regarding the biosynthesis of tetrapyrrole pigments--chlorophyll, haem, vitamin B12. Describes the structure and regulation of key enzymes along with various pathways, molecular genetic studies and structural characterization of the natural biosynthetic intermediates.
Carbon Rich Compounds I
Carbon Rich Compounds are defined here as carbon skeletons with a carbon to hydrogen ratio of 1:(=
Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry
Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry (PHC) is an annual review series commissioned by the International Society of Heterocyclic Chemistry (ISHC). The volumes in the series contain both highlights of the previous year's literature on heterocyclic chemistry and articles on new developing topics of interest to heterocyclic chemists. The highlight chapters in Volume 10 are all written by leading researchers in their field and these chapters constitute a systematic survey of the important original material reported in the literature on heterocyclic chemistry in 1997. Additional articles in this volume also review "The Synthesis of Chlorins, Bacteriochlorins, Isobacteriochlorins" and "Higher Reduced Porphyrins and Heterocyclic ortho-Quinodimethanes". As with previous volumes in the series, Volume 10 will enable academic and industrial chemistry and advanced students to keep abreast of developments in heterocyclic chemistry in an effortless way.
Enantioselective Organocatalysis
In this reference leaders at the forefront of research provide an insight into one of the hottest topics in organic synthesis, focusing on the most important enantioselective reactions. Clearly structured, each entry begins with a concise introduction, including a mechanistic discussion of the reaction, followed by preparative guidelines for newcomers, such as carefully selected working procedures with critical notes for bench chemists, rules of thumb and tips and tricks.
