Produktbeschreibung

Medicinal Protein Engineering provides a comprehensive overview of one of the most complex areas of molecular research. Using a multidisciplinary approach, this book moves readers from experiment and theory to actual applications. In particular, this text focuses on cutting-edge research in protein engineering and medicinal applications of engineered proteins. It discusses computational approaches to protein design and explores the tight connection between protein and genetic engineering. It also considers those medicinal proteins that could be improved through protein engineering, including antibodies, antigens, and a variety of vaccines.
