    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Simulating Protein Folding in Variable Environmental Conditions: Transformation from Globular Proteins to Amyloids delves into the effects of external conditions upon the protein folding process. The book considers how this can lead to amyloid formation and why proteins fold the way they do. It presents the fuzzy oil drop model (FOD-M), which enables the measurements of external factors influencing the folding process and considers changed external conditions as the source for the misfolding process. Sections provide an introduction to amyloid transformation and outline the hypothesis of the model simulation before considering the role of environmental factors, including the water environment and membrane environment.

    This book is a useful resource for researchers interested in investigating protein folding across molecular biology, structural biology, biochemistry, computational biology and related fields.
