کتاب Introduction to Proteins: Structure, Function, and Motion, Second Edition (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Biology Series) 2nd Edition
Introduction to Proteins provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art introduction to the structure, function, and motion of proteins for students, faculty, and researchers at all levels. The book covers proteins and enzymes across a wide range of contexts and applications, including medical disorders, drugs, toxins, chemical warfare, and animal behavior. Each chapter includes a Summary, Exercies, and References.
New features in the thoroughly-updated second edition include:
- A brand-new chapter on enzymatic catalysis, describing enzyme biochemistry, classification, kinetics, thermodynamics, mechanisms, and applications in medicine and other industries. These are accompanied by multiple animations of biochemical reactions and mechanisms, accessible via embedded QR codes (which can be viewed by smartphones)
- An in-depth discussion of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs)
- A wider-scale description of biochemical and biophysical methods for studying proteins, including fully accessible internet-based resources, such as databases and algorithms
- Animations of protein dynamics and conformational changes, accessible via embedded QR codes
Additional features
- Extensive discussion of the energetics of protein folding, stability and interactions
- A comprehensive view of membrane proteins, with emphasis on structure-function relationship
- Coverage of intrinsically unstructured proteins, providing a complete, realistic view of the proteome and its underlying functions
- Exploration of industrial applications of protein engineering and rational drug design
-
Each chapter includes a Summary, Exercies, and References
- Approximately 300 color images
- Downloadable solutions manual available at www.crcpress.com
