Intended for upper-level undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this primer introduces the general principles of protein structure, folding, and function and explains the conceptual basis for inferring structure and function from genomic sequence. Employing a modular design, chapters are divided into topics and each topic appears in a two-page spread featuring explanations, color illustrations, definitions, and references. Chapters focus on the biophysical properties of proteins, binding and catalysis, the regulation of protein function, structure and function determinations, and the collection, interpretation, and presentation of protein data.
