Klappentext Structural genomics is the systematic determination of 3-D structures of proteins representative of the range of protein structure and function found in nature. The goal is to build a body of structural information that will predict the structure and potential function for almost any protein from knowledge of its coding sequence. This is essential information for understanding the functioning of the human proteome, the ensemble of tens of thousands of proteins specified by the human genome. While most structural biologists pursue structures of individual proteins or protein groups, specialists in structural genomics pursue structures of proteins on a genome wide scale. This implies large-scale cloning, expression and purification. One main advantage of this approach is economy of scale. Zusammenfassung Structural genomics is the systematic determination of 3-dimensional structures of proteins representative of the range of protein structure and function found in nature. This title examines the three dimensional structure of proteins of a given organism! by experimental methods such as X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
