Folding and Self-Assembly of Biological Macromolecules - Proceedings of the Deuxiemes Entretiens de Bures (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789812385000)

This proceedings volume explores the pathways and mechanisms by which constituent residues interact and fold to yield native biological macromolecules (catalytic RNA and functional proteins), how ribosomes and other macromolecular complexes self-assemble, and relevant energetics considerations.At the week-long interactive conference, some 20 leading researchers reported their most pertinent results, confronting each other and an audience of more than 150 specialists from a wide range of scientific disciplines, including structural and molecular biology, biophysics, computer science, mathematics, and theoretical physics. The fourteen papers -- and audience interaction -- are edited and illustrated versions of the transcribed oral presentations.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:
