Summary:

This book covers the principle hydrodynamic and calorimetric techniques for studying protein-ligand interactions. A ligand is an atom, molecule, or ion that can bind to a specific site on a protein, and the interactions between any protein and its ligands are fundamental for the protein to function properly. Written from a practical standpoint, this book is applicable to both academic and industrial scientists wishing to characterize protein-ligand systems by using a multi-disciplinary approach.
