Description - Metal Ions in Life Sciences by Astrid Sigel

Metal Ions in Life Sciences links coordination chemistry and
biochemistry in their widest sense and thus increases our
understanding of the relationship between the chemistry of metals
and life processes. The series reflects the interdisciplinary
nature of Biological Inorganic Chemistry and coordinates the
efforts of scientists in fields like biochemistry, inorganic
chemistry, coordination chemistry, molecular and structural
biology, enzymology, environmental chemistry, physiology,
toxicology, biophysics, pharmacy, and medicine. Consequently, the
volumes are an essential source for researchers active in these and
related fields as well as teachers preparing courses, e.g., in
Bioinorganic Chemistry.
Providing you with all four volumes in one easily
accessible place, our set offers you a fantastic discount on this
invaluable series! Set includes:
Volume 1: Neurodegenerative Diseases and Metal ions
Devoted solely to the vital research area concerning the role of
metal ions in neurodegenerative diseases, offers in 15 stimulating
chapters an authoritative and timely view of this fascinating
subject.  
Volume 2: Nickel and Its Surprising Impact in Nature
The "one-stop" book for Nickel biochemistry, it focuses on the
vibrant research area concerning nickel as well as its complexes
and their role in Nature, and contains more than 2,800 references
and over 130 illustrations.
Volume 3: The Ubiquitous Roles of Cytochrome P450
Proteins
Provides a systematic overview on this hot research area,
spanning the gap between fundamental research and applied search,
this volume describes key classes of proteins and enzymes and
includes chapters on drug metabolism and biodegradation.
Volume 4: Biomineralization: From Nature to
Application
Biomineralization is a hot topic in the area of materials, and
this volume in the Metals Ions in Life Sciences series takes
a systematic approach, dealing with all aspects from the
fundamentals to applications. Key biological features of
biomineralization, such as gene directed growth and the role of
enzymes are covered, as are new areas, including copper/zinc in the
jaws of invertebrates or magnetic biomaterials that help birds with
navigation
