Mass Spectrometry in Structural Biology and Biophysics

The definitive guide to mass spectrometry techniques in biologyand biophysics
The use of mass spectrometry (MS) to study the architecture anddynamics of proteins is increasingly common within the biophysicalcommunity, and Mass Spectrometry in Structural Biology andBiophysics: Architecture, Dynamics, and Interaction ofBiomolecules, Second Edition provides readers with detailed,systematic coverage of the current state of the art.
Offering an unrivalled overview of modern MS-based armamentariumthat can be used to solve the most challenging problems inbiophysics, structural biology, and biopharmaceuticals, the book isa practical guide to understanding the role of MS techniques inbiophysical research. Designed to meet the needs of both academicand industrial researchers, it makes mass spectrometry accessibleto professionals in a range of fields, includingbiopharmaceuticals.
This new edition has been significantly expanded and updated toinclude the most recent experimental methodologies and techniques,MS applications in biophysics and structural biology, methods forstudying higher order structure and dynamics of proteins, anexamination of other biopolymers and synthetic polymers, such asnucleic acids and oligosaccharides, and much more.
Featuring high-quality illustrations that illuminate theconcepts described in the text, as well as extensive referencesthat enable the reader to pursue further study, Mass Spectrometryin Structural Biology and Biophysics is an indispensable resourcefor researchers and graduate students working in biophysics,structural biology, protein chemistry, and related fields.
