Description

General descriptionThis book presents the theoretical background on NMR of biomolecules, plus the use of NMR techniques in determining the structures of proteins and nucleic acids. BioNMR spectroscopy offers a universal tool for examining the binding of an active substance to its target protein. Its use benefits the rational development of drugs. This interaction can now be investigated and displayed in 3D - an important prerequisite for the targeted development of new active substances. The latest methods for characterizing substance-receptor complexes are demonstrated backed by case studies from pharmaceutical research. This guide contains basic information, application strategies and real-life examples.
