Synopsis

The Advances in Enzymology and Related Areas of Molecular Biology Series is one of the most prestigious in the field, devoted to the latest trends in molecular biology and enzymology. Each volume of the series contains contributions from leading authorities in the field. Under Dr. Purich's editorship, which began with volume 72, the series has expanded its coverage to include thematic volumes focusing on specific research areas, as well as non-thematic volumes consisting of chapters with a more general appeal.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Volume 75 in the classic series Advances in Enzymology and Related Areas of Molecular Biology explores the area of protein evolution. This volume considers mechanisms of protein evolution broadly, including the use of evolutionary archeology to trace protein evolution, the conservation of structure rather than sequence in protein evolution, and the use of directed evolution to create new enzyme activities.

Chapters include:

• Molecular Paleoscience: Systems Biology from the Past
• A Structure–Centric View of Protein Evolution, Design, and Adaptation
• Mechanisms of Protein Evolution and Their Applications to Protein Engineering
• Novel Enzymes Through Design and Evolution

Synopsis:

Devoted to the latest trends in molecular biology and enzymology, each volume of this series contains contributions from leading authorities in the field and has expanded its coverage to include specific research areas, as well as information with a more general appeal.
