Prediction of Protein Structures, Functions,

The prediction of protein structure and function is an increasingly important discipline used by the pharmaceutical industry to help researchers select and understand drug targets and refine drug candidates. Prediction of Protein Structures, Functions, and Interactions presents a comprehensive overview of methods for prediction of protein structure or function, with the emphasis on their availability and possibilities for their combined use. It is an essential guide to the newest, best methods for prediction of protein structure and functions, for researchers and advanced students.

Professor Bujnicki is head of the Laboratory of Bioinformatics and Protein Engineering at the International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, Warsaw, Poland. He is the editor of “Practical Bioinformatics" (Springer-Verlag, 2004).
