Description for Biophysics of DNA
hardcover. Surveys the last sixty years of research in the rapidly advancing field of DNA biophysics, addressing key questions and facilitating further research. Num Pages: 272 pages, 155 b/w illus. 16 colour illus. 9 tables. BIC Classification: PHVN; PSAK1. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 256 x 182 x 19. Weight in Grams: 702.
Surveying the last sixty years of research, this book describes the physical properties of DNA in the context of its biological functioning. It is designed to enable both students and researchers of molecular biology, biochemistry and physics to better understand the biophysics of DNA, addressing key questions and facilitating further research. The chapters integrate theoretical and experimental approaches, emphasising throughout the importance of a quantitative knowledge of physical properties in building and analysing models of DNA functioning. For example, the book shows how the relationship between DNA mechanical properties and the sequence specificity of DNA-protein binding can be analyzed quantitatively ... Read more

About Alexander Vologodskii
Alexander Vologodskii began his research career as a theorist, pioneering theoretical studies of knots and links in circular DNA and designing statistical mechanical models and computational methods to predict the appearance of alternative structures in supercoiled DNA. He later ran a research lab at New York University, where he made important contributions to topics related to DNA topology and supercoiling, ... Read more
