{"product_id":"9780080542706","title":"Theoretical Biochemistry: Processes and Properties of Biological Systems","description":"Theoretical chemistry has been an area of tremendous expansion and development over the past decade; from an approach where we were able to treat only a few atoms quantum mechanically or make fairly crude molecular dynamics simulations, into a discipline with an accuracy and predictive power that has rendered it an essential complementary tool to experiment in basically all areas of science. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This volume gives a flavour of the types of problems in biochemistry that theoretical calculations can solve at present, and illustrates the tremendous predictive power these approaches possess.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A wide range of computational approaches, from classical MD and Monte Carlo methods, via semi-empirical and DFT approaches on isolated model systems, to Car-Parinello QM-MD and novel hybrid QM\/MM studies are covered. The systems investigated also cover a broad range; from membrane-bound proteins to various types of enzymatic reactions as well as inhibitor studies, cofactor properties, solvent effects, transcription and radiation damage to DNA.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47148448612592,"sku":"9780080542706","price":565.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780080542706_p0.jpg?v=1763637646","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780080542706","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
