This book does just that. It focuses on what can be learned about protein-protein interactions from the analysis of protein-protein complex structures and interfaces. What are the driving forces for protein-protein association? How can we extract the mechanism of specific recognition from studying protein-protein interfaces? How can this knowledge be used to predict and design protein-protein interactions (interaction regions and complex structures)? What methods are currently employed to design protein-protein interactions, and how can we influence protein-protein interactions by mutagenesis and small-molecule drugs or peptide mimetics?The book consists of about 15 review chapters, written by experts, on the characterization of protein-protein interfaces, structure determination of protein complexes (by NMR and X-ray), theory of protein-protein binding, dynamics of protein interfaces, bioinformatics methods to predict interaction regions, and prediction of protein-protein complex structures (docking and homology modeling of complexes, etc.) and design of protein-protein interactions. It serves as a bridge between studying\/analyzing protein-protein complex structures (interfaces), predicting interactions, and influencing\/designing interactions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction to Protein-Protein Interactions: Protein-Protein Complex Determination by X-ray Crystallography and Interface Analysis of Known Structures (J Janin); Protein-Protein Complex Determination and Analysis of Interactions Using NMR Spectroscopy (J Werner); Perspective on Protein-Protein Interactions in Macromolecular Assemblies (R Bahadur); Energetics of Protein-Protein Interactions (I Jelezarov); Kinetics of Complex Formation: Theory and Experiment (R Wade); Prediction of Putative Protein Interaction Regions and Interaction Geometries: Prediction of Protein Interaction Regions Based on Evolutionary Information (O Lichtarge); Prediction of Interaction Regions and Scoring Optimization (M Zacharias); Protein-Protein Docking Methods: A General Overview (C Prevost); Refinement of Docking Solutions (C Camacho); High-Resolution Docking Including Conformational Flexibility (O Furman); Experimental Constraint-Driven Docking (A Bonvin); Design and Targeting of Protein-Protein Interactions by Drugs and Protein Mimetics: Protein-Protein Interaction Modules of Medical Importance (H Sticht); Prediction\/Calculation of Protein-Protein Binding Affinities and Mutation Effects (Fiorucci et al.); Design of Protein Mimetics That Interfere with Protein-Protein Interactions (K Mayo); Identifying Molecules to Inhibit Protein-Protein Interactions (T Berg); Combining Bioinformatics and Experiment to Design Inhibitors of Protein-Protein Interactions (G Colombo).","brand":"Imperial College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043012968791,"sku":"9781848163386","price":112.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781848163386.jpg?v=1750956656","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/protein-protein-complexes-analysis-modeling-and-drug-design-9781848163386","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
