Imagine that we had some way to look directly at the molecules in a living organism. An x-ray microscope would do the trick, or since we're dreaming, perhaps an Asimov-style nanosubmarine (unfortunately, neither is currently feasible). Think of the wonders we could witness firsthand: antibodies atta- ing a virus, electrical signals racing down nerve fibers, proteins building new strands of DNA. Many of the questions puzzling the current cadre of sci- tists would be answered at a glance. But the nanoscale world of molecules is separated from our everyday world of experience by a daunting...

Dieses Buch l dt ein zu einer Reise in das Innere der Zelle. Es zeigt die Vielfalt der Molek le, die wie die R dchen einer Maschine ineinandergreifen. Sie sind die Grundlage allen Lebens, von ihrem Funktionieren h ngen Gesundheit und Krankheit, Leben und Tod ab. David Goodsell erkl rt, was Biochemiker ber den Ablauf der lebenswichtigen Prozesse im K rper herausgefunden haben. Den ungeheuren Gr enunterschied von unserer vertrauten Welt zur mikroskopisch kleinen Welt der Molek le berbr ckt er dabei durch faszinierende Bilder. Seine Zeichnungen bieten sachliche Informationen ber die molekulare...

Molecular Nature is a richly illustrated guide to the extraordinary diversity of molecules that are responsible for life. David Goodsell, author of the highly-praised book, The Machinery of Life, has synthesized a vast amount of data in a manner that is accessible to the general reader. Molecular Nature examines topics ranging from the shape of cells to the molecules responsible for digestion, immunity, and thought. The author's unique combination of scientific and artistic talents make this a readable, stimulating and highly evocative book. About the Author: David...

This volume thoroughly covers HIV-1 antiretrovirals currently in clinical use, together with their advantages and limitations. HIV-1 inhibitor resistance is discussed in detail, and critical assessments as to what will be required of future antiretrovirals in order to halt viral replication, reduce viral resistance, and alter the state of viral latency are presented. Experts at the forefront of HIV-1 research provide overviews of approaches from the fields of virology, chemical biology and structural biology for obtaining small molecule inhibitors that target viral regulatory and...
