.
This is the last of five books in the Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins in Organic Synthesis series. Closing a gap in the literature, this is the only series to cover this important topic in organic and biochemistry. Drawing upon the combined expertise of the international "who`s who" in amino acid research, these volumes represent a real benchmark for amino acid chemistry, providing a comprehensive discussion of the occurrence, uses and applications of amino acids and, by extension, their polymeric forms, peptides and proteins. The practical value of each volume is heightened by the inclusion of experimental procedures.Volume 5 of this five-volume series presents a wealth of methods to analyze amino acids and peptides. Classical approaches are described, such as X-ray analysis, chromatographic methods, NMR, AFM, mass spectrometry and 2D-gel electrophoresis, as well as newer approaches, including Surface Plasmon Resonance and array technologies. This volume also elucidates the function of selected amino acids and peptides in more detail. Specifi c examples include the role of N-methylated peptides and the function of cysteine .

Andrew Hughes is a reader and associate professor of chemistry at La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia. He obtained his degrees from the University of Western Australia, before taking up post-doctoral appointments at the University of Cambridge starting in 1989. After three years working with Professor Andrew Holmes, he joined Professor Steven Ley`s group. While at Cambridge he was appointed the Shell Research Fellow at Robinson College. His interests lie in the general fi eld of asymmetric synthesis and methodology, with a recent focus on amino acid chemistry and diffi cult peptides.
