Abstract

Presenting integrated analyses of the most recent results, Protein-Solvent Interactions examines the construction of proteins and the protein devices that underlie protein function and stability, furnishing a new paradigm for protein research ... reviews x-ray crystallographic results on the patterns of solvent structure in and around proteins ... studies protein hydration, glass transitions, and the plasticizing action of water, leading to a unifying description of protein dynamics ... highlights results from dielectric relaxation, Rayleigh scattering of Mossbauer radiation, positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, hydrogen isotope exchange, and flash photolysis techniques ... outlines Brownian dynamics, Kramers's theory, and the effects of solvent viscosity on protein dynamics ... defines the thermodynamic nonideality of proteins in water-cosolvent mixtures in terms of excluded volume and preferential interactions, supplying a new appreciation of binding phenomena ... offers an inventory of solvent-induced effects on protein stability, association, and folding and shows how to obtain the missing thermodynamic data ... introduces a new approach to protein separation problems ... and much more. This practical resource covers the latest advances in the interactions of proteins with their solvent environment and provides fundamental physical information useful for the application of proteins in biotechnology and industrial processes. It discusses in detail structural, dynamic, and thermodynamic aspects of protein hydration as well as proteins in aqueous and organic solvents as they relate to protein function, stability, and folding.

Abstract

Fundamentals of Protein Structure and Function Engelbert Buxbaum, Dr. rer. nat. This book serves as an introduction to the fundamentals of protein structure and function. Starting with their make up from simple building blocks called amino acids, the 3-dimensional structure of proteins is explained. This is followed by an introduction into enzymology and modern concepts of enzyme kinetics, taking into account the physiological and medical significance of this often neglected topic. Also covered in the text are enzymes, biocatalysts, enzyme kinetics, hemoglobin, myoglobin, prion proteins, immunoproteins, motor proteins and movement, cell-cell interactions, molecular chaperones and chaperonins, transport of proteins into mitochondria, transport of proteins between cell compartments, transport of solutes across membranes, analytic techniques, protein-ligand interactions, protein purification, and protein structure, size and shape, emphasizing the link between protein structure, physiological function and medical significance. This book is an introductory text for researchers in protein biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, chemistry, biophysics and biomedical research. The book also makes an ideal textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses in protein structure and function, and a supplementary text for related courses. About the Author Dr. Buxbaum is a biochemist with interest in enzymology and protein science. Dr. Buxbaum has been working on the biochemistry of membrane transport proteins for almost 20 years and has taught courses in biochemistry and molecular medicine at several universities. "The analytical descriptions of structure, biophysics and function of proteins is an extremely important aspect of today's education in biochemistry."

Abstract

Protein Science encompasses the structure, function, and biochemical significance of proteins; their role in molecular and cell biology, genetics, and evolution; and their regulation and mechanisms of action. Representative topics include, but are not limited to, the structure of proteins and strategies of determining protein structure by chemical, biophysical, and recombinant methods; peptides; protein domains; protein folding and molecular dynamics; novel isolation procedures; enzyme action and regulation; interactions of proteins with nucleic acids, lipids, ligands, and other proteins; receptor-mediated signal transduction and other trans-membrane phenomena; the functions of proteins in replication, supramolecular assembly, immune reactions, development, and other biological processes; protein trafficking, synthesis, and sorting; and the recognition, localization and signaling of proteins. In addition to the investigative techniques already mentioned, the Journal will publish results of protein-centered work involving sequencing, modification, and mass spectrometry; cDNA, mutagenesis, and cloning; computational analysis; isolation and characterization; thermodynamics and hydrodynamics; kinetics; and equilibrium phenomena.

Abstract

Volume 2 of this two-volume sequence focuses on protein structure prediction and includes protein threading, De novo methods, applications to membrane proteins and protein complexes, structure-based drug design, as well as structure prediction as a systems problem. A series of appendices review the biological and chemical basics related to protein structure, computer science for structural informatics, and prerequisite mathematics and statistics.
