Book Synopsis Mass Spectrometry of Proteins and Peptides by : John R. Chapman
Download or read book Mass Spectrometry of Proteins and Peptides written by John R. Chapman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-05 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little more than three years down the line and I am already writing the Preface to a second volume to follow Protein and Peptide Analysis by Mass . What has happened in between these times to make this second venture worthwhile? New types of mass spectrometric instrumentation have appeared so that new techniques have become possible and existing techniques have become much more feasible. More particularly, however, the newer ionization te- niques, introduced for the analysis of high molecular weight materials, have now been thoroughly used and studied. As a result, there has been an en- mous improvement in the associated sample handling technology so that these methods are now routinely applied to much smaller sample amounts as well as to more intractable samples. Again, this particular community of mass spectrometry users has both increased in number and diversified. And, riding this wave of acceptance, leaders in the field have set their sights on more complex problems: molecular interaction, ion structures, quantitation, and kinetics are just a few of the newer areas reported in Mass Spectrometry of Proteins and Peptides. As with the first volume, one purpose of this collection, Mass Spectr- etry of Proteins and Peptides, is to show the reader what can be done by the application of mass spectrometry, and perhaps even to encourage the reader to venture down new paths.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus was first isolated in 1938 by Kubes and Rios (1) from the brain of a horse which died during an epizootic of a previously unrecognized disease in Venezuela. VEE-related viruses were subsequently isolated during t e period of 1943-1963 in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Trinidad, Brazil, Surinam, Argentina, Panama, Mexico, and the United States (2) * Shope et . (3) fi rst defi ned the vi ru ses in the VEE comp 1 ex t-y showing serological relationships between classical VEE, lucambo, and Pixuna viruses. Young and Johnson (2) serologically characterized a variety of VEE isolates and proposed that the complex t>e divided into four subtypes (I, II, III, and IV). Viruses in subtype I were divided into five variants designated IA through IE. During 1069-1 71 a VEE epizootic-epidemic occurred in South America, Central America, and the United States involving a subtype lAB virus which caused high mortality among equines and human d i sea se (4). Venezuelan equine encephalitis viruses are alpha-togaviruses w ic contain a positive strand rit>onucleic acid genome enclosed in an icosa edral nucleocapsid.The virion has an envelope which contains blO glycoproteins: E2 of 5F,000 daltons (gp56) and E1 of O, OOO daltons (gp50) (5,6). Viral neutralization (N) and hemagglutiration (HA) sites have been placed on E2 by the use of monospecific rabtdt antisera and monoclonal antibodies specific for purified viral structural proteins (7-10). Only anti-E2 antisera neutralized virus infectivity or blocked virus hemagglutination.

Book Synopsis Methods in Non-Aqueous Enzymology by : Munishwar N. Gupta
Download or read book Methods in Non-Aqueous Enzymology written by Munishwar N. Gupta and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extending the range of enzymatic catalysis by using non-aqueous media has now developed into a powerful approach in biochemistry and biotechnology. One peculiar feature which distinguishes it from the conventional enzymology (carried out in aqueous buffers) is that the awareness of different parameters that control and influence the behaviour of enzymes in such environments has emerged rather slowly. Science is about being able to repeat what somebody else has done. Absence of knowledge about such well-defined parameters/fac tors has sometimes made some workers rather cautious and diffident about using this approach in their laboratories. But for this, non-aqueous enzymol ogy would be more widely practised. It is these thoughts that made me feel that the availability of some well-defined protocols for various applications invol ving enzymes in non-aqueous environments would further catalyze the growth of this area. Hence this book, in which each chapter has some protocols in a specific area. The protocols are preceded by brief background material. The early chapters, which are of general importance, concern control of water ac tivity and stabilization via immobilization. Some subsequent chapters provide the protocols for transformations involving lipids and carbohydrates, peptide synthesis, and preparation of chiral compounds. The disproportionate focus on lipases is not a coincidence; this class of enzymes has been used more often than others in non-aqueous enzymology.
Book Synopsis Peptides: Chemistry and Biology by : G.R. Marshall
Download or read book Peptides: Chemistry and Biology written by G.R. Marshall and published by Springer. This book was released on 1988-02-29 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tenth American Peptide Symposium was held on the campus of Wash ington University in St. Louis, Missouri, on May 23-28, 1987. More than 750 participants from around the world met to renew acquaintances, make new friends, and feast at the scientific explosion occurring in the field of peptide research. From over 85 oral presentations and 295 poster presentations, the manuscripts which make up this proceedings have been selected in order to present a synopsis of current research. In many ways, this meeting represented a culmination of forces clearly perceptible in the proceedings of previous meetings in which synthetic chemistry, spectroscopy, molecular biology, molecular modeling, and protein chemistry all are blended as needed to focus on interesting scientific problems. As peptides assume an ever increasingly important role in biological phenomena, our domain as peptide chemists has obviously expanded, and we are the richer for it. The session on conformation was highlighted by both predictions ofthree-dimensional structures of proteins (i. e. , interleukin and human growth hormone) as well as determination of solution structures by 2D NMR. A growing interest in peptide mimetics stimulated much interest in reverse turn mimics, nonpeptide antagonists of peptide hormones, and amide bond isosteres. Increased use of unusual amino acids created strong interest in approaches to asymmetric syntheses of amino acids and methodological improvements in peptide synthesis as well as recent advances in purification and characterization methods.

Book Synopsis Gas-Phase IR Spectroscopy and Structure of Biological Molecules by : Anouk M. Rijs
Download or read book Gas-Phase IR Spectroscopy and Structure of Biological Molecules written by Anouk M. Rijs and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The series Topics in Current Chemistry presents critical reviews of the present and future trends in modern chemical research. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field. Review articles for the individual volumes are invited by the volume editors. Readership: research chemists at universities or in industry, graduate students.
