Product Description
Organic chemists working on the synthesis of natural products have long found a special challenge in the preparation of peptides and proteins. However, more reliable, more efficient synthetic preparation methods have been developed in recent years. This reference evaluates the most important synthesis methods available today, and also considers methods that show promise for future applications.This text describes the state of the art in efficient synthetic methods for the synthesis of both natural and artificial large peptide and protein molecules. Subjects include an introduction to basic topics, linear solid-phase synthesis of peptides, peptide synthesis in solution, convergent solid-phase synthesis, methods for the synthesis of branched peptides, formation of disulfide bridges, and more. The book emphasizes strategies and tactics that must be considered for the successful synthesis of peptides.

Amino Acid and Peptide Synthesis (Oxford Chemistry Primers, No 7)

Amino Acid and Peptide Synthesis (Oxford Chemistry Primers, No 7)
by John Jones (Author)

The study of amino acids and peptides is becoming increasingly important to chemists because of the growing overlap of mainstream organic chemistry with bioorganic and biochemistry. This introductory text begins with a brief survey of the role and diversity of amino acids, peptides, and proteins in nature, and goes on to describe and explain the principal methods of chemical synthesis. With its emphasis on chemical principals and strategies rather than detailed technical matters, the book will...
