Extensively revised and updated, the new fourth edition is an essential reference for biochemists, biotechnologists, and molecular biologists across academia and industry. Edited by world-renowned experts in the field, and with five volumes available for individual sale, this work provides detailed information on all known proteolytic enzymes researched to-date, with expanded coverage of metallopeptidases, cysteine peptidases, serine and threonine peptidases, aspartic and glutamic peptidases, and inhibitors of proteolytic enzymes.
This volume includes over 300 chapters on known metallopeptidases enzymes, including their name, history, activity and specificity, structural chemistry, preparation, biological aspects, and distinguishing features, with 2D structures of peptidases in color, extensive references, and links to PubMed and MEROPS databases.
