"With chapters provided by international leading experts, this book covers the recent advances in protein and peptide mass spectrometry. Focusing on the pharmaceutical industry, it addresses both emerging techniques, including imaging mass spectrometry, ion mobility, and microwave-assisted mass spectrometry, and recent applications, including pharmaceutical analysis throughout the drug development cycle. The book stresses practice and applications, providing real world examples from industry contributors. After overviewing methodology and discussing recent studies, the remaining chapters address newer techniques for determining protein structure, interactions with peptides, proteins, and ligands, and protein folding and unfolding."

"New strategies and techniques for today's fast-paced discovery process. Today, the pressure is on for high-throughput approaches to accelerate the generation, identification, and optimization of molecules with desirable drug properties. As traditional methods of analysis become antiquated, new analytical strategies and techniques are necessary to meet sample throughput requirements and manpower constraints. Among them, mass spectrometry has grown to be a front-line tool throughout drug discovery. Integrated Strategies for Drug Discovery Using Mass Spectrometry provides a thorough review of current analytical approaches, industry practices, and strategies in drug discovery. The topics represent current industry benchmarks in specific drug discovery activities that deal with proteomics, biomarker discovery, metabonomic approaches for toxicity screening, lead identification, compound libraries, quantitative bioanalytical support, biotransformation, reactive metabolite characterization, lead optimization, pharmaceutical property profiling, sample preparation strategies, and automation. THIS BOOK: Clearly explains how drug discovery and mass spectrometry are interconnected Discusses the uses and limitations of various types of mass spectrometry in various aspects of drug discovery Prominently features analytical applications that require trace-mixture analysis Provides industry applications and real-world examples Shares historical background information on various techniques to aid in the understanding of how and why new methods are now being employed to analyze samples."

"Filling a real knowledge gap, this handbook and ready reference is both modern and forward-looking in its emphasis on the "bench to bedside" translational approach to drug development. Clearly structured into three major parts, the book stakes out the boundaries of peptide drug development in the preclinical as well as clinical stages. The first part provides a general background and focuses on the characteristic strengths and weaknesses of peptide drugs. The second section contains five cases studies of peptides from diverse therapeutic fields, and the lessons to be learned from them, while the final part looks at new targets and opportunities, discussing several drug targets and diseases for which peptide drugs are currently being developed."

"The book closes with chapters on recent progress in technologies: protein engineering to promote crystallization, micro-crystallization, and high-throughput crystallography. Withitsbroadperspective,thebookprovidesastate-of-the-artoverviewonimportant results and techniques that are relevant for protein 3D structure-based drug design."

"This first overview of mass spectrometry-based pharmaceutical analysis is the key to improved high-throughput drug screening, rational drug design and analysis of multiple ligand-target interactions. The ready reference opens with a general introduction to the use of mass spectrometry in pharmaceutical screening, followed by a detailed description of recently developed analytical systems for use in the pharmaceutical laboratory.Applications range from simple binding assays to complex screens of biological activity and systems containing multiple targets or ligands, all highly relevant techniques in the early stages in drug discovery, from target characterization to hit and lead finding."

"This book contains case studies of the discovery of erythromycin analogs (antibiotics), Tagamet, and Ultiva (remifentanil). Discusses the discovery of agents for the treatment and management of bacterial infections, Parkinson's disease, psoriasis, ulcers and stomach pain, atopic dermatitis, asthma, and cancer. Contains chapters on combinatorial chemistry, molecular biology-based drug discovery, genomics, and chemogenomics.The first volume of this set thoroughly describes conceptualizing a drug, creating a library of candidates for testing, screening those candidates for in vitro and in vivo activity, conducting and analyzing the results of clinical trials, and revising the drug as necessary."
