Description
Bioinorganic chemical knowledge grows more interesting and morecomplex with each passing year. As more details about the usage andutility of metals in biological species and more mechanistic andstructural information about bioinorganic molecules becomesavailable, scientists and students continue to turn their attentionto this blossoming discipline. Rosette Roat-Malone's BioinorganicChemistry: A Short Course provides an accessible survey ofbioinorganic chemistry for advanced undergraduate and graduatestudents. Comprehensive coverage of several topics offers insightinto the increasingly diverse bioinorganic area. Roat-Malone's textconcentrates on bioinorganic chemistry's two major focuses:naturally occurring inorganic elements and their behavior inbiological systems, and the introduction of inorganic elements intobiological systems, often as medicines. The book begins with two review chapters, Inorganic ChemistryEssentials and Biochemistry Fundamentals. Chapter 3, Instrumentaland Computer-Based Methods, provides an introduction to someimportant instrumental techniques, including basic informationabout computer hardware and software. Chapters on specific topics include: Iron Containing Oxygen Carriers and Their SyntheticModels Copper Enzymes The Enzyme Nitrogenase Metals in Medicine The author also encourages instructors and students to pursuetheir own independent investigations in bioinorganic topics,providing a helpful, detailed list of suggestions. With a host ofcurrent bibliographic references, Bioinorganic Chemistry: A ShortCourse proves the premier text in its field.
