Organized on a combined basis of chronology and of structural and functional hierarchy, This comprehensive text describes all aspects of proteins--biosynthesis, evolution, dynamics, ligand binding, catalysis, and energy transduction--not just their structures. This edition (first was 1984) is thoroughly updated--especially in the area of protein biosynthesis--and features end-of-chapter exercises and problems, many of which require the student to consult the cited literature in order to obtain the answer.

In one convenient resource, Creighton's landmark textbook offers an expert introduction to all aspects of proteins--biosynthesis, evolution, structures, dynamics, ligand binding, and catalysis. It works equally well as a reference or as a classroom text.

Protein Structure: A Practical Approach gives general methods for determining protein structure that will be very widely applicable, from the simple electrophoretic, chromatographic, and spectrophotometric techniques to the relatively more complex and sophisticated methods of mass spectrometry and ultracentrifugation. This second edition has been fully updated to embrace the most recent developments in the field, and will be invaluable to all involved in protein research.
Since the dawn of recorded history, and probably even before, men and women have been grasping at the mechanisms by which they themselves exist. Only relatively recently, did this grasp yield anything of substance, and only within the last several decades did the proteins play a pivotal role in this existence. In this expose on the topic of protein structure some of the current issues in this scientific field are discussed. The aim is that a non-expert can gain some appreciation for the intricacies involved, and in the current state of affairs. The expert meanwhile, we hope, can gain a deeper understanding of the topic.
The subject of molecular biology continues to be the most exciting and dynamic area of science and is predicted to dominate the 21st century. Only by investigating biological phenomena at the molecular level is it possible to understand it in detail. This volume describes the most fundamental aspects of molecular biology.
Molekularbiologie von A bis Z: Diese vierbändige Enzyklopädie mit über 2000 knapp und prägnant formulierten Artikeln und mehr als 900 anschaulichen Abbildungen läßt keine Frage offen! Den Schwerpunkt des Themenspektrums bilden die Grundlagen des Fachgebiets - die Autoren, ein Team international anerkannter Experten, legten daher besonderen Wert auf eindeutige Begriffserklärungen.

In Protein Stability and Folding: Theory and Practice, world-class scientists present in a single volume a comprehensive selection of hands-on recipes for all of the major techniques needed to understand the conformational stability of proteins, as well as their three-dimensional folding. The distinguished contributors provide clear, step-by-step instructions along with many troubleshooting tips, alternative procedures, and informative explanations about why certain steps are necessary. Even highly skilled researchers will find many time-saving methods. Among the techniques discussed are fluorescent, ultraviolet, and infrared spectroscopy; HPLC peptide mapping; differential scanning calorimetry; and hydrogen exchange. Shirley's Protein Stability and Folding: Theory and Practice will ensure a significant difference in the outcome of your experiments, producing the result desired even for beginners.
DNA, RNA and proteins are undoubtedly the most important biological molecules. Being large macromolecules, their physical, chemical and biological properties can differ from those of the monomers from which they are made. This book describes their structures, origins and other key issues.
