Highlights in Bioorganic Chemistry by Carsten Schmuck
This is a fascinating introduction to the topic. Spanning the spectrum of nucleic acid chemistry, carbohydrates, peptides, molecular recognition, biosynthesis and natural biosynthesis, right up to medical and biophysical chemistry, the book provides advanced students and those already working in the field with a balanced overview. In more than 30 contributions, a new generation of recognized scientists gives an account of the latest research in such areas as * Artificial receptors for the stabilization of ?-sheet structures * Carbohydrate recognition by artificial receptors * Combinatorial chemistry as a tool for the discovery of catalysts * The interaction of NO and peroxynitrite with hemoglobin and myoglobin * Inhibitors against human mast-cell-tryptase as a potential approach to conquering asthma * The selectivity of DNA replication. A readily accessible survey for everyone wishing to stay abreast of developments. With a Foreword by Ronald Breslow.
"..gives the average reader, on reading the contents, a general perspective of the scope of present-day bioorganic chemistry..."

"The book consists of 35 chapters on various aspects of our chemical knowledge of various biological assemblies or of their model counterparts. The chapters have been written by various experts in the field, and I am naturally very stimulated by the state-of-the-art coverage that these colleagues have so nicely given to various aspects in a very professional manner. I have no doubt that the book will be helpful and interesting to both, beginners in the bioorganic research as well as to those who are practitioners in the field as a readily availabele reference book. ... This is a good, affordable reference book with plenty of citations to the review articles and original publications. I strongly recommend this as a reference or handbook to my both young and expert colleagues."
