February 1, 2026
English
Design and Applications of Cell-Free Systems, Part B, Volume 219 offers the latest information on cell free systems for the expression of transmembrane proteins, enzymes, proteins, therapeutics, vaccines, and uses in the biotransformation, translational modification, self-assembly of nano-biomaterials, and in synthetic biology design, challenges, and opportunities. It will help students, researchers, scientists, clinicians, stakeholders, policymakers, and practitioners understand cell-free systems and their applications in many areas. The book represents an important component in the field of biochemistry, duly acknowledging the pioneering effort made by Nobel laureate Eduard Buchner for discovery of fermentation in yeast cell extracts (YCE).CFS requires core molecular machinery, including RNA polymerase, translational apparatus (ribosomes, tRNA synthases, and translation factors), energy-generating molecules, and their cofactors, substrates, and DNA or plasmid templates for obtaining desired products. CFS is a simple, rapid, and sensitive platform, which is devoid of membrane-bound barriers, yet contains all the mandatory substrates, biomolecules, and machineries required for the synthesis of the desired proteins.

Simulating Protein Folding in Variable Environmental Conditions
Transformation from Globular Proteins to Amyloids
1st Edition
January 30, 2026
Irena Roterman-Konieczna
English
Simulating Protein Folding in Variable Environmental Conditions: Transformation from Globular Proteins to Amyloids delves into the effects of external conditions upon the protein folding process. The book considers how this can lead to amyloid formation and why proteins fold the way they do. It presents the fuzzy oil drop model (FOD-M), which enables the measurements of external factors influencing the folding process and considers changed external conditions as the source for the misfolding process. Sections provide an introduction to amyloid transformation and outline the hypothesis of the model simulation before considering the role of environmental factors, including the water environment and membrane environment. This book is a useful resource for researchers interested in investigating protein folding across molecular biology, structural biology, biochemistry, computational biology and related fields.
