Peptide Chemistry and Drug Design

Peptide Chemistry and Drug Design: Peptides as Drugs details many of the problems and successes of peptides as potential drugs. It provides overviews of separation methods and techniques for analysis (HPLC, mass spectrometry) in peptide chemistry, as well as the discovery of peptide receptors and inhibitors relevant to drug design. Chapters also detail the industrial-scale production of peptides, modifications and drug delivery challenges, and results from clinical trials and a future perspective.
