More About This Title Structural Biology in Drug Discovery - Methods,Techniques, and Practices

English

With the most comprehensive and up-to-date overview of structure-based drug discovery and using experimental and computational approaches, this book covers principles, methods, applications, and emerging paradigms of structural biology as a tool for more efficient drug development.

• Presents the benefits, limitations, and potentiality of novel techniques in the field, like complex crystallization, X-ray diffraction, NMR, mass spectrometry, and computational chemistry
• Assesses macromolecular structures with experimental, analytical, and therapeutic approaches to reveal a successful, multidisciplinary perspective to drug development
• Includes detailed chapters on concepts, like protein dynamics, structure-based chemogenomics and polypharmacology, and fragment-based drug design
• Illustrates advances in biomolecular targeting using case studies and emerging examples: epigenetic proteins, HCV inhibitors, HIV-1 inhibitors, ribosomes, and antibodies
