Die Autoren dieses Buches laden Sie zu zwölf hochinteressanten, herausfordernden Experimenten ein, die Ihnen maximalen Lerneffekt bei minimalem Zeitaufwand versprechen: Suchen Sie beispielsweise mit chemischen Sonden nach DNA-Mutationen, nehmen Sie eine Proteomanalyse an Hefe vor oder synthetisieren Sie bioaktive Moleküle wie Antibiotika! Fast jedes moderne Laborverfahren zur Synthese oder Analyse biologisch aktiver Verbindungen wird mindestens einmal angewendet. Eine gelungene Mischung aus praxistauglichen Arbeitsanleitungen und fundierten Informationen zum theoretischen Hintergrund!

Über Autor(innen)

Herbert Waldmann (b 1957) received his PhD in 1985 from the University of Mainz (Germany) with H. Kunz. After postdoctoral studies (1985-1986, Harvard University, George Whitesides) and habilitation (1991, University of Mainz) he was appointed associate professor at the University of Bonn in 1991. In 1993 he moved to the University of Karlsruhe as Full Professor of Organic Chemistry. In 1999 he was appointed Director at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology in Dortmund, where he is heading the Department of Chemical Biology. He also holds a Professorship in Biochemistry at the University of Dortmund. Herbert Waldmann has been the recipient of the Friedrich Weygand Award for the advancement of peptide chemistry, of the Carl Duisberg Award of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker, the Otto-Bayer-Award and the Steinhofer Award of the Steinhofer Foundation.
His current research interests include bioorganic chemistry and natural product synthesis as well as biocatalysis, stereoselective synthesis and combinatorial chemistry.
Petra Janning (b. 1967) studied chemistry at the University of Münster (Germany). She completed her PhD degree at the University of Dortmund with G. Tölg and M. Linscheid. From 1995 - 1998 she worked as a chemist in the University Hospital in Aachen. From 1999-2001 she worked in the group of G.H. Degen and H.M. Bolt at the Institute of Occupational Health in Dortmund. In 2001 she joined the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology, where she is currently working in the group of Herbert Waldmann. She is responsible for the Bioorganic Practical Course and the analytics in the department.
