Chemical approaches to the synthesis of peptides and proteins

This book describes the state of the art in efficient methods for the synthesis of both natural and artificial large peptide and protein molecules. Topics include an introduction to basic concepts, linear solid-phase synthesis of peptides, peptide synthesis in solution, convergent solid-phase synthesis, methods for the synthesis of branched peptides, and much more. Strategies and tactics that must be considered for the successful synthesis of peptides are emphasized.
