Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Disease, Part A

Book excerpt: Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Disease, Part A, Volume 110 aims to promote further research and development in the protein interaction network as a means to not only identify the critical proteins involved in the etiology of human diseases, but also identify new protein targets for drug development. Sections cover such topics as protein-protein interaction modulators for epigenetic therapies, intrinsic disorder, protein-protein interactions and disease, targeting protein-protein interactions in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, the proteomics of occupational diseases, and computational methods in predicting the impact of SNPs in protein-protein network, amongst other topics. - Describes advances in the application of powerful techniques in studying and analyzing protein-protein interactions - Targeted to a wide audience of researchers, specialists and students - Written by authorities in their field - Includes information that is well supported by a number of high quality illustrations, figures and tables
