NMR - From Spectra to Structures : An Experimental Approach
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is one of the most powerful analytical methods. This practice-oriented textbook aims at teaching how NMR experiments should be used to make structural asssignments. The book is intended as a practical guide for students and laboratory personnel, so that the emphasis is on practical rather than on theoretical aspects, which are treated only to the extent necessary to understand the experiments and to interpret the results.The second edition has been expanded to include several other heteronuclei (15N, 19F, 29Si, 77Se, 113Cd, 117Sn/119Sn, 195Pt, 207Pb) and a new chapter on solid state NMR. The problems section has been enlarged and now includes 50 problems.
Guide to Biomolecular Simulations
Molecular dynamics simulations have become instrumental in replacing our view of proteins as relatively rigid structures with the realization that they were dynamic systems, whose internal motions play a functional role. Over the years, such simulations have become a central part of biophysics. Applications of molecular dynamics in biophysics range over many areas. They are used in the structure determination of macromolecules with x-ray and NMR data, the modelling of unknown structures from their sequence, the study of enzyme mechanisms, the estimation of ligand-binding free energies, the evaluation of the role of conformational change in protein function, and drug design for targets of known structures.
Electron crystallography : Novel approaches for structure determination of nanosized materials
During the last decade we have been witness to several exciting achievements in electron crystallography. This includes structural and charge density studies on organic molecules complicated inorganic and metallic materials in the amorphous, nano-, meso- and quasi-crystalline state and also development of new software, tailor-made for the special needs of electron crystallography. This volume comprises the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Electron Crystallography: Novel Approaches for Structure Determination of Nanosized Materials, Erice, Italy, 10 - 24 June 2004
Algorithms in Bioinformatics ; Vol. 3692 ; 5th international workshop, WABI 2005, Mallorca, Spain, October 3-6, 2005, Proceedings
this book present the proceedings of the 5th Workshop on Algorithmsin Bioinformatics (WABI 2005) which took place in Spain, 2005. The Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics highlights research workspecifically developed to address algorithmic problems in biosequence analysis. The emphasis is therefore on statistical and probabilistic algorithms that addressimportant problems in the field of molecular and structural biology. the workshop aims to present recent research results, includingsignificant work in progress, and to identify and explore directions of futureresearch.Original research papers (including significant work in progress) or state-of-the-art surveys were solicited on all aspects of algorithms in bioinformatics,including, but not limited to: exact and approximate algorithms for genomics,genetics, sequence analysis, gene and signal recognition, alignment, molecularevolution, phylogenetics, structure determination or prediction, gene expressionand gene networks, proteomics, functional genomics, and drug design.
