The field of chemistry which analyzes the role of metals in biology is known as bioinorganic chemistry. It draws on the principles of biochemistry and inorganic chemistry for studying the effects of substrate bindings and activation, electron-transfer proteins, group transfer chemistry, etc. Bioinorganic chemistry attempts to understand different phenomenon like the behavior of metal proteins, artificially induced metals and non-essential metals used in the fields of medicine and toxicology. This encompasses elements like iron, cobalt, zinc, copper, nickel, etc. Some of the important areas of research under this discipline are enzymology, toxicity, metal ion transport and storage, biomineralization, nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis. This book attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of bioinorganic chemistry and how such concepts have practical applications. The topics included herein are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. This will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.

Those of us who read a daily newspaper or scan a weekly magazine have grown accustomed to being told that the science of genetics influences countless aspects of our existence, from human development, health, and disease to the ecological balance of our planet. We accept this, and yet most of us have only the faintest idea of what a gene really is or how it functions. This book, then, is a primer on modern genetics, and its aim is to teach any interested general reader all he or she needs to know about how genes work - and about how a detailed knowledge of their workings can be applied to some of the most pressing problems of our time. Written by two world-renowned researchers in molecular biology and illustrated with uncommon clarity and precision, Dealing with Genes will satisfy the interest of general readers, including those who have little formal background in biology. It will also serve admirably as an authoritative text for students taking nonmajors courses in biology, genetics, molecular biology, biotechnology, and related disciplines.

Practical Approaches to Biological Inorganic Chemistry, Second Edition, reviews the use of spectroscopic and related analytical techniques to investigate the complex structures and mechanisms of biological inorganic systems that contain metals. Each chapter presents an overview of the technique, including relevant theory, a clear explanation of what it is, how it works, and how the technique is actually used to evaluate biological structures. New chapters cover Raman Spectroscopy and Molecular Magnetochemistry, but all chapters have been updated to reflect the latest developments in discussed techniques. Practical examples, problems and many color figures are also included to illustrate key concepts. The book is designed for researchers and students who want to learn both the basics and more advanced aspects of key methods in biological inorganic chemistry. Presents new chapters on Raman Spectroscopy and Molecular Magnetochemistry, as well as updated figures and content throughout Includes color images throughout to enable easier visualization of molecular mechanisms and structures Provides worked examples and problems to help illustrate and test the reader’s understanding of each technique Written by leading experts who use and teach the most important techniques used today to analyze complex biological structures

Advances in Inorganic Chemistry Volume 58 focuses on homogeneous biomimetic oxidation catalysis. Contributions by leading experts in the field cover important advances in inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry. Contributions include diversity-based approaches to selective biomimetic oxidation catalysis; the selective conversion of hydrocarbons with H2O2 using biomimetic non-heme iron and manganese oxidation catalysis; DNA oxidation by copper and manganese complexes; influences of the ligand in copper-dioxygen complex-formation and substrate oxidations; biomimetic oxidations by dinuclear and trinuclear copper complexes. In the final contribution the authors focus on green oxidation of alcohols using biomimetic copper complexes and enzymes as catalysts. Volume 58 provides another welcomed addition to the widely acclaimed series, Advances in Inorganic Chemistry. * Includes new information on the important advances in inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry * Each chapter is fully referenced * Contains comprehensive reviews written by leading experts in the field
