Proteins: Energy, Heat and Signal Flow

Proteins are the molecular machines of the cell, and computational modeling provides insight into how energy flow in proteins mediates protein function. Unique in its coverage, this volume provides a broad overview of techniques used in the study of energy flow in biological molecules in general, in addition to its particular focus on proteins. It collects and connects a variety of computational approaches developed in distinct fields of research to reveal information central to our understanding of how proteins function, while also demonstrating methods that can be used to study energy and heat transport in condensed phase systems.
