Microcharacterization of Proteins - Hardcover

Both a thorough introduction and laboratory guide! This book is based on the lectures and demonstrations presented at a successful workshop at the Max-Planck-Institute for Biochemistry. It offers stimulating combination of basic concepts and practical applications.

R. Kellner, F. Lottspeich, H. E. Meyer Microcharacterization of Proteins Second Edition Proteomics ? the analysis of the whole set of proteins and their functions in a cell ? is based on the revolutionary developments which have been achieved in protein analysis during the last years. The number of finished genome projects is growing and in parallel there is a dramatically increasing need to identify the products of revealed genes. Acting on a micro level modern protein chemistry increases our understanding of biological events by elucidating the relevant structure-function relationships. The second edition of the successful title "Microcharacterization of Proteins" presents a current overview of modern protein analysis: From sample preparation to sequence analysis, mass spectrometry and bioinformatics it informs about the tools needed in protein research. This makes the book indispensable for everyone involved in proteomics!
