基本説明
Following an introduction, further sections discuss structural apptoaches, molecular interaction and larhe assembles, dynamics and spectroscopies, finishing off with an exploration of structure-function relationships in whole cell.
Full Description
Meeting the need for a book on developing and using new methods to investigate membrane proteins, this is the first of its kind to present the full range of novel techniques in one resource. Top researchers from around the world focus on the physical principles exploited in the different techniques, and provide examples of how these can bring about important new insights.
Following an introduction, further sections discuss structural approaches, molecular interaction and large assemblies, dynamics and spectroscopies, finishing off with an exploration of structure-function relationships in whole cells.
