Synopsis

Advanced Spectroscopic Methods to Study Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics presents the latest emerging technologies in spectroscopy and advances in established spectroscopic methods. The book presents a guide to research methods in biomolecular spectroscopy, providing comprehensive coverage of developments in the spectroscopic techniques used to study protein structure and dynamics. Seventeen chapters from leading researchers cover key aspects of spectroscopic methods, with each chapter covering structure, folding, and dynamics. This title will help researchers keep up-to-date on the latest novel methods and advances in established methods.

• Presents current, emerging, and evolving advances and applications of spectroscopic techniques in the study of biomolecules, including proteins and nucleic acids
• Discusses contemporary spectroscopic techniques used to study biomolecular structure, interaction, and dynamics

About this title

About the Authors

Dr. Prakash Saudagar is an active researcher and a sterling classroom teacher, currently working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Biochemistry, National Institute of Technology Warangal, India. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati, India, in 2013. His research has immensely contributed to exploring potential drug target proteins and inhibitors. His research interests include molecular and biochemical parasitology, infectious disease, and protein biochemistry. He has a strong command over computational techniques and in-vitro techniques used to study proteins. He has published more than 40 research articles in reputed journals like the International Journal of Biological Molecules, FEBS, FEBS OpenBio, PLOS one, Scientific Reports, Biological Chemistry, Parasitology International, Molecular Simulation, etc., and book chapters in Elsevier and Springer to his name. He has been PI/Co-PI in research grants from SERB and DST. He has been awarded the B.S. Narasinga Rao award SBC, India (2011), Best presentation award, ICIDN, Nepal (2015), Young Faculty Award, VIF India (2016), and Young Scientist Award, Telangana Academy of Science (2018). He is an associate fellow of the Telangana Academy of Science (2018) and a life member of the Indian Science Congress and Society of Biological Chemists. He has guided several Ph.D. and M.Tech. students, postdoctoral fellows, project fellows, and trainees. He has many interdisciplinary collaborating partners in prestigious institutions in India and abroad.

Dr. Timir Tripathi is a Professor of Molecular Biology, School of Life Sciences, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, India. He previously held positions as Regional Director of IGNOU in Kohima and a Senior Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at NEHU. His research focuses on protein–substrate interactions, conformational dynamics, and the regulatory roles of non-catalytic domains. He is especially interested in intrinsically disordered and phase-separated proteins, their roles in disease, and, more recently, molecular memory, adaptive learning, and intelligence in proteins. Professor Tripathi has received several awards and is an Associate Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy, New Delhi, and an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, India. He is a section editor of Elsevier's International Journal of Biological Macromolecules and has published five books with Elsevier.

From the Back Cover

Spectroscopic techniques are used in molecular, biochemical and structural biology, and have progressed massively over two decades. Significant advances have stimulated research and progress in almost every discipline of life science. Consequently, researchers must continually update themselves with new skills and knowledge. Advanced Spectroscopic Methods to Study Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics presents the latest emerging technologies in spectroscopy and advances in established spectroscopic methods.

Advanced Spectroscopic Methods to Study Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics presents a guide to research methods in spectroscopy. The title gives comprehensive coverage of developments in spectroscopic techniques used to study protein and nucleic acid structure and dynamics. Nineteen chapters from leading researchers cover key aspects of spectroscopic methods, and each chapter covers structure, folding and dynamics. This title will help researchers keep up to date with the latest novel methods and advances in established methods.
