Synopsis

This new text examines thebiophysics and biochemistry of nucleic acids and proteins, carving outthe dynamic interface between chemistry and molecular biology, and providing adetailed picture of nucleic acids and proteins, their structures, biologicalproperties, and origins and evolution.
Full of novel insights informed by years of research and teaching, R.D. Blake has written a new text that examines the biophysics and biochemistry of nucleic acids and proteins. This book carves out the dynamic interface between chemistry and molecular biology, and provides a detailed picture of nucleic acids and proteins, their structures, biological properties, and origins and evolution. While pitched at a level that is accessible to upper-level undergraduate students of biology, the book will likewise be of keen interest to researchers and graduate students in biology, chemistry and the physical sciences. A broad range of topics accompanied with extensive references, footnotes, boxed asides, chapter ending problems, and detailed illustrations throughout combine to make this an ideal choice for courses on advanced biochemistry, physical biochemistry, nucleic acids and proteins, biophysics and biochemistry, molecular evolution, and protein-nucleic acid interactions.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

R.D. Blake received his BS in biology and chemistry at Tufts College, and Ph.D in biochemistry from Princeton University. After a year of postdoctoral research at Princeton with Professor J.R. Fresco, he continued as a member of the research staff for five years, following which he joined the Biochemistry Department at the University of Maine. He has published papers on the thermodynamics of DNA, DNA denaturation, the effects of solvents and denaturants on DNA stability, macrosatellite evolution, and the effects of neutral drift on DNA sequence complexity.
