Origin of Life
Dedicated to one of the great pioneers of this science, Leslie Orgel, on the occasion of his 80th birthday, this compilation of reviews and original manuscripts provides an overview of the current state of the art, written by some of the major players in this creative domain of 'explorative chemistry' (such as Christian De Duve, Albert Eschenmoser, Gunter Wachtershauser). Since we are still far from finding a definitive answer to the most fundamental of questions in science, 'chemistry' here is defined in its broadest sense. It is against ...
Modified Nucleosides
Edited by one of the main driving forces behind the field's momentous rise in recent years, this one-stop reference is the first comprehensive resource to integrate recent advances. The first part addresses biochemical aspects and applications, the second and third parts are devoted to compounds with therapeutic potential, with the third part focusing on newly introduced anticancer nucleoside drugs. Essential reading for every scientist working in this area.
Oligonucleotide Synthesis
A collection of powerful new techniques for oligonucleotide synthesis and for the use of modified oligonucleotides in biotechnology. Among the protocol highlights are a novel two-step process that yields a high purity, less costly, DNA, the synthesis of phosphorothioates using new sulfur transfer agents, the synthesis of LNA, peptide conjugation methods to improve cellular delivery and cell-specific targeting, and triple helix formation. The applications include using molecular beacons to monitor the PCR amplification process, nuclease footprinting to study the sequence-selective binding of small molecules of DNA, nucleic acid libraries, and the use of small interference RNA (siRNA) as an inhibitor of gene expression.
Drug Discovery Handbook
The Drug Discovery Handbook gives professionals a tool to facilitate drug discovery by bringing together, for the first time in one resource, a compendium of methods and techniques that need to be considered when developing new drugs. This comprehensive, practical guide presents an explanation of the latest techniques and methods in drug discovery, including: Genomics, proteomics, high-throughput screening, and systems biology Summaries of how these techniques and methods are used to discover new central nervous system agents, antiviral agents, respiratory drugs, oncology drugs, and more Specific approaches to drug discovery, including problems that are encountered, solutions to these problems, and limitations of various methods and techniques The thorough coverage and practical, scientifically valid problem-solving approach of Drug Discovery Handbook will serve as an invaluable aid in the complex task of developing new drugs.
Chemistry and Biology of Artificial Nucleic Acids
This is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of the field of artificial nucleic acids. Covering a tremendous amount of literature on the chemistry, biology, and structure of artificial nucleic acids, it will constitute an invaluable source of information for the specialist and for young researchers interested in starting a career in this fascinating field of research alike. This book combines the contributions of many of the major players in this research field, and covers the synthesis of sugar-, base- and backbone-modified nucleic acids, their structural characteristics studied by X-ray crystallography, and NMR in solution as well as their chemical and biological properties.
Handbook of Chemical Biology of Nucleic Acids
This handbook is the first to comprehensively cover nucleic acids from fundamentals to recent advances and applications. It is divided into 10 sections where authors present not only basic knowledge but also recent research. Each section consists of extensive review chapters covering the chemistry, biology, and biophysics of nucleic acids as well as their applications in molecular medicine, biotechnology and nanotechnology. All sections within this book are: Physical Chemistry of Nucleic Acids (Section Editor: Prof. Roland Winter), Structural Chemistry of Nucleic Acids (Section Editor: Prof. Janez Plavec), Organic Chemistry of Nucleic Acids (Section Editor: Prof. Piet Herdewijin), Ligand Che...
Perspectives in Nucleoside and Nucleic Acid Chemistry
The chemistry of nucleosides and nucleic acids is a rapidly developing field. Many of the most important recent advances in medicinal chemistry have occured in this field with the development of novel nucleoside– and nucleotide–based antiviral and antitumor drugs. New synthesis strategies involving novel protecting groups have helped spur progress in drug–development and genome–sequencing research. This volume, comprised of contributions written by internationally recognized experts, covers cutting–edge developments in current nucleoside and nucleic acid research. The most recent synthesis innovations, including combinatorial approaches, spectroscopy and structural studies, thermodynamic and computational investigations, stability assessments, and medicinal applications are presented. Synthetic, physical, organic, bioorganic, and medicinal chemists working on all aspects of nucleoside and nucleic acid research will value this comprehensive state–of–the–art overview.
