Reviews

From the reviews:

“‘Fundamentals of Protein Structure and Function’ introduces the fundamental aspects of protein biochemistry from both basic and applied perspectives. … this book can serve as an interesting textbook for advanced learners in protein structure and function. … The book also summarizes the analytical techniques used to characterize cellular and membrane proteins. … it provides a comprehensive understanding of the basics in protein biochemistry and serves as an interesting combination of chemistry and biology for a general readership.” (Mobeen Raja, Journal of Chemical Biology, Vol. 5 (2), April, 2012)
