  • Multistate GTPase Control Co-translational Protein Targetingby Xin Zhang

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    Proteins act as macromolecular machinery that mediate many diverse biological processes - the molecular mechanisms of this machinery has fascinated biologists for decades. Analysis of the kinetic and thermodynamic features of these mechanisms could reveal unprecedented aspects of how the machinery function and will eventually lead to a novel understanding... more...

  • DNA Topoisomerases and Cancerby Yves Pommier

    Springer 2011; US$ 169.99

    DNA topoisomerases represent an essential family of DNA processing enzymes and a large number of topoisomerase inhibitors are used clinically for the treatment of various human cancers. Novels drugs are in clinical development both against type I and type II topoisomerases. The book will include basic biochemical and structural reviews for the cancer-relevant... more...

  • RNA Infrastructure and Networksby Lesley J. Collins

    Springer 2011; US$ 149.99

    RNAs form complexes with proteins and other RNAs. The RNA-infrastructure represents the spatiotemporal interaction of these proteins and RNAs in a cell-wide network. "RNA Infrastructure and Networks" brings together these ideas to illustrate the scope of RNA-based biology, and how connecting RNA mechanisms is a powerful tool to investigate... more...

  • Protein Folding and Misfoldingby Heinz Fabian; Dieter Naumann

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    Infrared spectroscopy is a new and innovative technology to study protein folding/misfolding events in the broad arsenal of techniques conventionally used in this field. The progress in understanding protein folding and misfolding is primarily due to the development of biophysical methods which permit to probe conformational changes with high kinetic... more...

  • Adenosine Deaminases Acting on RNA (ADARs) and A-to-I Editingby Charles E. Samuel

    Springer 2011; US$ 149.99

    The objective of this "CTMI" volume is to provide readers with a foundation for understanding what ADARs are and how they act to affect gene expression and function. It is becoming increasingly apparent that ADARs may possess roles not only as enzymes that deaminate adenosine to produce inosine in RNA substrates with double-stranded character,... more...

  • Water Soluble Vitaminsby Olaf Stanger

    Springer 2011; US$ 189.99

    The discovery of vitamins in the early 1900s, their later chemical characterization and the clarification of pivotal metabolic functions are sequential aspects of a brilliant chapter in the history of modern nutritional sciences and medicine. The name, derived from "vital-amines", indicates their elementary metabolic key functions in human... more...

  • Seleniumby Dolph L. Hatfield; Marla J. Berry; Vadim N. Gladyshev

    Springer 2011; US$ 139.99

    Many health benefits have been attributed to selenium that include preventing various forms of cancer (e.g., colon cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer and liver cancer), heart disease and other cardiovascular and muscle disorders, inhibiting viral expression, delaying the progression of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in human immunodeficiency... more...

  • Activation and Detoxification Enzymesby Chang-Hwei Chen

    Springer 2011; US$ 149.99

    Humans are exposed to foreign compounds such as drugs, household products and environmental chemicals by swallowing or breathing. Also, food is considered a foreign compound. Such foreign compounds can be non-essential and non-functional to life, and commonly are referred to as xenobiotics. Some xenobiotics are not toxic; however, many of them are... more...

  • Microbial Degradation of Xenobioticsby Shree Nath Singh

    Springer 2011; US$ 139.99

    Our interest in the microbial biodegradation of xenobiotics has increased many folds in recent years to find out sustainable ways for environmental cleanup. Bioremediation and biotransformation processes harness the naturally occurring ability of microbes to degrade, transform or accumulate a wide range of organic pollutants. Major methodological breakthroughs... more...

  • Formation and Cooperative Behaviour of Protein Complexes on the Cell Membraneby Ksenia Guseva

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    With the aim of providing a deeper insight into possible mechanisms of biological self-organization, this thesis presents new approaches to describe the process of self-assembly and the impact of spatial organization on the function of membrane proteins, from a statistical physics point of view. It focuses on three important scenarios: the assembly... more...
