Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This is a book worth adding in one's collection and is most suitable for advanced students and professionals. This compendium consists of in-depth reviews prepared by authoritative sources. It is extremely informative, presenting detailed facts on the history, sources, active sites, reaction mechanisms, substrate specificities, structures (native and redesigned), and applications for 34 classes of enzymes that have industrial applications. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students through professionals." (J. M. Tomich, CHOICE, Vol. v4 (3), November, 2007)
