A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"This book is a gold mine of fundamental and practical information in an area not previously well represented in book form. ( Biochemistry and Molecular Education, September/October 2003)

"...a gold mine of fundamental and practical information.... This book is destined to become a classic reference work for workers at all levels in structural bioinformatics...recommended with great enthusiasm for educators, researchers, and graduate students." (BAMBED, Vol. 31, No. 5, 2003)

"...recommended for anyone who wishes to develop bioinformatics tools for protein structure analysis." (The Biotech Journal, April/May 2003)

"...a useful and timely summary of a rapidly expanding field." (Nature Structural Biology, Vol. 10, No. 8, August 2003)

"...a terrific job in this timely creation of a compilation of articles that appropriately addresses this issue." (Briefings in Bioinformatics)

Quatrième de couverture

Structural Bioinformatics begins with chapters on the fundamentals of protein structure, DNA/RNA structure, carbohydrates, and techniques including X–ray crystallography, NMR, cryo–electron microscopy, and molecular visualization. The following section addresses data representation and databases, followed by information on structure classification of proteins (SCOP) and class, architecture, topology, homology (CATH) classification. Later chapters cover structure–function assignment, protein interactions, and proteins as drug targets. Structural Bioinformatics also:

• Covers the theory, biology, resources, and practical applications for computational approaches to biomolecular structural studies
• Provides broad–based, concise coverage with a consistent level and direction
• Offers detailed coverage for practitioners while remaining accessible to the novice student
• Presents computational analysis of growing masses of structural data as the key to advances in pharmacogenomics

The book concludes with several chapters on structure prediction methods and a discussion of the future of high–throughput structure determination in drug design.

Molecular biologists, biochemists, biophysicists, and bioinformaticians in basic and clinical research, as well as undergraduate and graduate students in biology, medicine, and computer science will find Structural Bioinformatics an essential addition to their bookshelves.
