| Publisher Description: This exemplary new book illustrates the successful partnership of chemistry and biology to advance successful biotherapeutic modalities. Molecular design to create function is common to both chemical and molecular biology, and therefore the book highlights recent developments from these disciplines that have delivered drugs, clinical candidates or significantly advanced biotherapeutic approaches. Biotherapeutics are generally considered beyond the reach of the medicinal chemist, but chemistry has an essential role to play in the future success of this area, and chemical biology technologies that underpin specific therapeutic advances will be described that demonstrate the value of molecular design and understanding. The book is essential reading for medicinal chemists, pharmacologists, molecular and chemical biologists. |
