Genetically Engineered Toxins

Presenting all preclinical and clinical information available on genetically engineered toxins

This unique, single-source reference provides the most up-to-date methods and practical examples for conducting clinical studies in toxin molecular biology.

Reviewing difficult problems and their solutions

Genetically Engineered Toxins discusses techniques for cloning, expressing, and purifying recombinant toxins and genetically modified recombinant toxins; documents structure-function relationships in toxins, including comparative information; supplies theory and illustrations of chimeric toxins; delineates the preclinical assessments of new reagents; and summarizes approaches to drug design.

With over 1100 literature citations

Genetically Engineered Toxins is an invaluable resource for biochemists, molecular biologists, biotechnologists, pharmacologists, toxicologists, X-ray crystallographers, enzymologists, oncologists, hematologists, immunologists, rheumatologists, botanists, and graduate-level students in molecular biology, biotechnology, and clinical oncology courses.
