This detailed volume explores techniques for protein bioinformatics research, including databases, software tools, and computational methods, in the context of protein science or proteomics and opening to other omics areas. Beginning with a section on proteogenomics, the book continues by covering posttranslational modifications, processing large-scale mass spectrometry data, protein structure and interactions, as well as protein feature inference. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include the kind of detailed implementation advice to ensure efficacious results.

Authoritative and practical, Protein Bioinformatics serves as an ideal guide for researchers in disciplines encompassing the biotechnological, pharmaceutical, biological, and medical sciences, as well as the computational and engineering sciences.

Includes cutting-edge techniques Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results Contains key implementation advice from the experts
