Handbook of Proteolytic Enzymes Cysteine Peptidases

The Handbook of Proteolytic Enzymes: Cysteine Peptidases has stood as most comprehensive work in the field of applied enzymology and biocatalysis since the first edition published in 1998. Extensively revised and updated, the new, fourth edition?is an essential reference for biochemists, biotechnologists, and molecular biologists across academia and industry. Edited by world-renowned experts in the field and with five volumes available for individual sale, this work provides detailed information on all known proteolytic enzymes researched to-date, with expanded coverage of metallopeptidases, cysteine peptidases, serine and threonine peptidases, aspartic and glutamic peptidases, and inhibitors of proteolytic enzymes. This volume,?Cysteine Peptidases, includes over 300 chapters on known cysteine peptidases, including their name, history, activity and specificity, structural chemistry, preparation, biological aspects, and distinguishing features, with 2D and 3D structures of peptidases in color, extensive references, and links to PubMed and MEROPS databases.
