Waves in Biomechanics THz Vibrations and Modal Analysis in Proteins and Macromolecular Structures / [electronic resource] : by Domenico Scaramozzino, Giuseppe Lacidogna, Alberto Carpinteri. - 1st ed. 2022. - X, 82 p. online resource. - Synthesis Lectures on Wave Phenomena in the Physical Sciences, 2690-2354 . - Synthesis Lectures on Wave Phenomena in the Physical Sciences, .
Preface -- Introduction -- Proteins: The Basis of Biological Mechanisms -- Protein Vibrations and Elastic Network Models -- Protein Vibrations and Conformational Changes -- Exploring Protein Vibrations Experimentally: Raman and THz-TDS -- Bibliography -- Authors' Biographies.
Proteins and macromolecular structures represent one of the most important building blocks for a variety of biological processes. Their biological activity is performed in a dynamic fashion, hence the concepts of waves and vibrations can help to explain how proteins function. This book has the goal of highlighting the importance of wave and vibrational phenomena in the realm of proteins. It targets younger students as well as graduate researchers who work in various scientific fields and are interested in learning how mechanical vibrations affect and drive the biological activity of proteins and macromolecular structures. Great attention is given to the computational approaches dedicated to the evaluation of protein dynamics and biological behavior, and modern experimental techniques are addressed as well. The book is written in a way that non-experts in the field can grasp most of the presented subjects. However, it is also based on the most relevant and recent scientific literature,providing a rather comprehensive library for the reader eager to know more about specific topics.
