  Proteins play a central role in all biological functions. They fulfil numerous functions which depend on their complex three-dimensional structures maintained by a multitude of interactions. This work examines important advances in the understanding of protein structure diversity, the basis of protein stability, and the important relationship between structure and function which have been made possible through the applications of key techniques such as X-ray crystallography, NMR and protein engineering. The text provides comprehensive coverage of this subject for students in biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology and related courses, and should also be of interest to researcher requiring an introduction to this field.
