Synopses & Reviews
This is a volume that includes structural studies of biological molecules, mainly proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids and biomembranes, as revealed by molecular spectroscopy methods. One outstanding aspect of this book is that it increases the interface between molecular spectroscopy and structural biology. The target groups of this book are therefore specialists in the fields of biology, medicine, and physical chemistry who are interested in the use of molecular spectroscopy methods to solve structural problems in life science research. Compared to other books related to this field, this volume is special in that it shows the latest and specific structural aspects of biomolecules and up-to-date literature.
