Protein Actions: Principles and Modeling by I. Bahar, R.L. Jernigan, and K.A. Dill

Abstract

Structure -- Proteins are polymers that fold into specific structures -- Proteins perform cellular functions -- Proteins have stable equilibrium conformations -- Protein binding leads to biological actions -- Folding and aggregation are cooperative transitions -- The Principles of protein folding kinetics -- Proteins evolve -- Bioinformatics : insights from protein sequences -- Protein geometries & energetics -- Molecular simulations and conformational sampling -- Predicting protein structures from sequences -- Biological actions arise from protein motions -- Molecular modeling for drug discovery.
