Filling a gap in the literature, leading expert editors and top international authors present the field of biooxidation from an academic and industrial point of view, taking many examples from modern pharmaceutical research. Topics range from the application of different monooxygenases to applications in the pharmaceutical industry, making this volume of high interest not only for those working in biotechnology but also for organic synthetic chemists, among others.
Edited by two pioneers of magneto-optics, this book is designed to provide graduate students and researchers with an introductory state-of-the-art review of recent developments in this subject. The field encompasses important areas in solid-state physics, chemical physics and electrical engineering. The book deals with optical spectroscopy of paramagnetic, antiferromagnetic, and ferromagnetic materials, photo-induced magnetism and their applications to opto-electronics.
This volume is a summary of the proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Vitamin B6 and Carbonyl Catalysis, held in Osaka, Japan, 15-19 October 1990. The development of molecular biology and x-ray crystallography techniques have contributed greatly to the knowledge and understanding of PLP-dependent enzymes. The structural, mechanistic and functional aspects of the PLP-dependent enzymes have been studied for over 40 years by many active researchers. Recent evidence indicates that the coenzyme is substituted by the pyruvoyl group which is a reactive carbonyl in some amino acid decarboxylases, and the presence of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), another carbonyl coenzyme, in other enzymes. The contents of this volume attest to the exciting progress in elucidating structure, mechanism of action, and the function of enzymes dependent on coenzymes containing the carbonyl group.

Vols. for 1963- include as pt. 2 of the Jan. issue: Medical subject headings.
The Springer Handbook of Enzymes provides concise data on some 5,000 enzymes sufficiently well characterized – and here is the second, updated edition. Their application in analytical, synthetic and biotechnology processes as well as in food industry, and for medicinal treatments is added. Data sheets are arranged in their EC-Number sequence. The new edition reflects considerable progress in enzymology: the total material has more than doubled, and the complete 2nd edition consists of 39 volumes plus Synonym Index. Starting in 2009, all newly classified enzymes are treated in Supplement Volumes.
Provides up-to-date information on all aspects of basic and applied research on quinoproteins and quinonoid co-factors such as pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) - exploring the scope, direction and potential value of investigations in this multidisciplinary field.
