Structural Genomics and High Throughput Structural Biology

Details the analytical and computational methods used to reveal the three-dimensional structure of proteins and explains how to interpret the information to elucidate protein function. From basic discovery through practical applications of therapeutically driven structural genomics, this book presents a comprehensive overview of the field.
