Description
Peptides play a crucial role in many physiological processes including actions as neurotransmitters, hormones, and antibiotics. Research
has shown their importance in such fields as neuroscience, immunology, pharmacology, and cell biology. The
Handbook of Biologically
Active Peptides presents, for the first time, this tremendous body of knowledge in the field of biologically active peptides
in one single reference. The section editors and contributors represent some of the most sophisticated and distinguished scientists working
in basic sciences and clinical medicine.
The
Handbook of Biologically Active Peptides is a definitive, all-encompassing
reference that will be indispensable for individuals ranging from peptide researchers, to biochemists, cell and molecular biologists,
neuroscientists, pharmacologists, and to endocrinologists. Chapters are designed to be a source for workers in the field and will enable
researchers working in a specific area to examine other related areas with which they would not ordinarily be familiar.
Audience:
Peptide researchers, biochemists, cell and molecular biologists, neuroscientists, pharmacologists, and endocrinologists
