Release Notes

Proteomics is the study of the subsets of proteins present in different parts of
an organism and how they change with time and varying conditions. Mass
spectrometry is the leading technology used in proteomics, and the field relies
heavily on bioinformatics to process and analyze the acquired data. Since
recent years have seen tremendous developments in instrumentation and
proteomics-related bioinformatics, there is clearly a need for a solid
introduction to the crossroads where proteomics and bioinformatics meet.

Computational Methods for Mass Spectrometry Proteomics describes the different
instruments and methodologies used in proteomics in a unified manner. The
authors put an emphasis on the computational methods for the different phases of
a proteomics analysis, but the underlying principles in protein chemistry and
instrument technology are also described. The book is illustrated by a number of
figures and examples, and contains exercises for the reader. Written in an
accessible yet rigorous style, it is a valuable reference for both
informaticians and biologists.

Computational Methods for Mass Spectrometry Proteomics is suited for advanced
undergraduate and graduate students of bioinformatics and molecular biology with
an interest in proteomics. It also provides a good introduction and reference
source for researchers new to proteomics, and for people who come into more
peripheral contact with the field.
