Protein Sequencing Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology)

Thirty protocols describe current techniques for protein and peptide preparation and sequencing. The contributors provide insights into using automated sequencers and mass spectrometers, preparing proteins and peptides on a microgram and submicrogram scale, mapping peptides, analyzing amino acids by pre- and postcolumn derivitization methods, and sequencing N- and C-terminal peptides by classical and newly developed techniques. Troublesome problems such as identifying sides of modification and working with very small samples are also covered. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

This methodological guide can be recommended to all who are concerned with protein characterization or peptide mapping. - Reviewed by R. Moravec, Biologia Plantarum
