This volume is primarily a compilation of contributed articles representing the impact and application of Ramachandran's work on conformation analysis of biopolymers, as well as recent advances in macromolecular structural biology, involving diverse experimental and computational approaches. This volume is being published to coincide with a conference on "Biomolecular Forms and Functions: A celebration of 50 years of the Ramachandran Map" being held at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, in January 2013.
As a spectroscopic method, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has seen spectacular growth over the past two decades, both as a technique and in its applications. Today the applications of NMR span a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics to biology to medicine. Each volume of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance comprises a combination of annual and biennial reports which together provide comprehensive of the literature on this topic. This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules which is covered in two reports: "NMR of Proteins and Acids" and "NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids...
Applications of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) span a wide range of scientific disciplines, including physis, biology and medicine. Each volume in this series comprises a combination of reports offering a comprehensive coverage of the literature. With an unrivalled scope of coverage, this Specialist Periodical Report presents an invaluable source of current methods and applications for seasoned practitioners and newcomers alike.
Understanding the functions and properties of molecules in living systems requires a detailed knowledge of their three-dimensional structures and the conformational variability that allows them to adopt multiple functional forms. Interpreting biological systems in the language of three-dimensional structures is of fundamental importance and innumerable research groups around the world are working in this area. This book is a compilation of articles describing attempts at understanding the intricacies of biological systems through the structures of and interactions between their constituent molecules.
The gap between experimental objects and models for calculations in chemistry is being bridged. The size of experimental nano-objects is decreasing, while reliable calculations are feasible for larger and larger molecular systems. The results of these calculations for isolated molecules are becoming more relevant for experiments. However, there are still significant challenges for computational methods. This series of books presents reviews of current advances in computational methodologies and applications. Chapter 1 of this volume provides an overview of the theoretical and numerical aspects in the development of the polarizable continuum model (PCM). Chapter 2 demonstrates a multiplicativ...
Commencing with Volume 21, the aim of this series is to produce a larger number of, relatively short but, timely and authoritative reviews. These will concentrate, in particular, on areas of NMR where recent progress, and developments, are of special interest and will reflect the many NMR developments occurring in the primary scientific literature. The present volume demonstrates the advances which can be made by the application of NMR techniques in many diverse areas of chemistry. Of particular significance is the account of Graphics-Aided NMR which will become an inprotant development in the use of NMR spectroscopy.
Diese Neuauflage behandelt auch die methodischen Fortschritte in der NMR-Spektroskopie, die seit der ersten Auflage gemacht wurden. Dazu gehören die indirekten Nachweismethoden, die die Empfindlichkeit wesentlich gesteigert haben; die drei- und mehrdimensionale NMR mit ihrer erhöhten spektralen Auflösung und Korrelationsvermögen; neue Programme, die die Molekularmechanik und dynamische Rechnungen ausnutzen und mit denen man komplexe zwei- und mehrdimensionale NMR- Spektren genau auswerten kann; und das Gradientenverfahren, das die Untersuchungszeit wesentlich verkürzt. Die Neuauflage behält den bewährten Aufbau der ersten Ausgabe bei: Einführende Kapitel mit Beschreibungen, den Grundlagen der Theorie und den experimentellen Aspekten stehen Anwendungskapiteln voran, die die Breite der Forschungsgebiete und Verbindungsklassen illustrieren. Aus Besprechungen der ersten Auflage: ... mit seinem einzigartigen Inhalt und praktischen Wert wird es seinen Platz auf den Bücherbrettern der meisten NMR-Laboratorien finden.

The existence and functioning of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) challenge the classical structure-function paradigm that equates function with a well-defined 3D structure. Uncovering the disordered complement of proteomes and understanding their functioning can extend the structure-function paradigm to herald new breakthroughs in drug dev
