The readers will find an integral connection between this book and the first volume, which ensures a comprehensive and updated discussion of the main topics of the discipline. Taken together, these volumes constitute a cohesive and authoritative source of the research on multicomponent macromolecular complexes. In here, we focus on characterization of protein complexes in the broadest sense, which is not typically covered in other sources. Moreover, all chapters are carefully written by world renowned scientists and active researchers, making this volume ideal, not only as a reference source, but also as a companion book for the daily laboratory work.
This book is aimed for a wide range of scientists, from science students to experienced researchers, working on protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes, who need a thorough understanding of protein production and complex characterization.
Dr. M. Cristina Vega leads a research group at the Chemical and Structural Biology Department, part of the Center for Biological Research Margarita Salas (CIB-CSIC) in Madrid, Spain. Her research blends biochemical, biophysical, and structural biology techniques to explore the mechanisms by which pathogens circumvent the human complement system and other immune defenses and to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
Dr. Francisco J. Fernández, as the CEO of Abvance Biotech SL, a cutting-edge biopharmaceutical company in Madrid, Spain, brings his extensive expertise in structural biology and recombinant protein production and characterization to the forefront. His work is distinguished by a profound interest in applying synthetic and computational biology tools and techniques for therapeutic antibody development. Dr. Fernández’s innovative approach in these fields underpins his leadership in advancing biotechnological applications in medicine.
