Structural Genomics and Drug Discovery: Methods and Protocols

by Wayne F. Anderson

Overview

Structural Genomics and Drug Discovery: Methods and Prools focuses on high throughput structure determination methods and how they can be applied to lay the groundwork for structure aided drug discovery. The methods and prools that are described can be applied in any laboratory interested in using detailed structural information to advance the initial stages of drug discovery. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory prools, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, Structural Genomics and Drug Discovery: Methods and Prools seeks to aid scientists in the further study into structural genomics approach as an efficient initial step toward drug discovery and the methods described will be useful to anyone interested in moving in this direction.
