Overview

This new edition delves into the latest developments in the field and new techniques used to study secondary and supersecondary structures (SSS) in proteins. Beyond the tremendous advances in the field from the AI-based AlphaFold algorithm, researchers continue to untangle how specific structures and protein folds come to be, and these chapters contain numerous techniques to further pursue this study. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters contain the kind of detailed implementation advice needed to ensure effective results in the lab.    Authoritative and practical, Protein Supersecondary Structures: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition serves as a valuable resource for researchers exploring the relationship between amino acids sequences and protein structures, the evolution of proteins, and the dynamics of protein formation.
