ABSTRACT

Proteins: Concepts in Biochemistry teaches the biochemical concepts underlying protein structure, evolution, stability and folding, and explains how interactions with macromolecular structures determine protein function. Intended for a one-semester biochemistry course with a focus on proteins, this textbook emphasizes the logic underlying biophysical chemical principles. Problems throughout the book encourage statistical and quantitative thinking. The text is ideal for senior undergraduates, first year graduate students, and practitioners in chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and biophysics.
