The majority of all proteins undergo co- and or post-translational modifications crucially
altering physical and chemical properties folding conformation distribution stability
activity and consequently the function of the proteins. In Post-Translational Modifications
of Proteins: Tools for Functional Proteomics Third Edition this important area of research is
brought up-to-date by the leading scientists in the field. This compilation of detailed
protocols focuses on protein function proteome research and characterization of pharmaceutical
proteins while following the successful format of the Methods in Molecular Biology series.
Each chapter provides a brief introduction to the topic step-by-step laboratory protocols
lists of the necessary equipment and reagents and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known
pitfalls.Comprehensive and cutting edge Post-Translational Modifications of Proteins: Tools
for Functional Proteomics Third Edition serves as practical guide for researchers working in
the field of protein structure-function relationships and the rapidly growing field of
proteomics as well as scientists in the pharmaceutical industries.
