Synopsis: In Peptide Synthesis Protocols leading authorities assemble in one volume a broad range of state-of-the-art methods for the preparation, purification, and synthesis of peptides. These powerful and useful protocols contain many innovations not previously described, including a compilation of chemical modification procedures and peptide synthesis improvements. The authors describe each procedure in a practical, step-by-step fashion suitable for both the skilled and novice researcher. They also provide troubleshooting tips, alternative ways of doing things, and informative explanations about why certain steps are necessary--aids not usually found in standard journal recipes--all designed to guarantee a significant difference in the outcome of your experiments. Pennington and Dunn's Peptide Synthesis Protocols offers a comprehensive collection of standardized, readily reproducible methods for many critical procedures that will enable scientists in every area of biochemical and biological research to prepare, purify, characterize, and use peptides effectively.
