Textbook of Structural Biology, 2nd Edition, presents the fundamental principles of structural biology and summarizes major directions of research across the discipline. The text examines how molecular architecture dictates biological activity in diverse cellular systems.

Coverage focuses on the relationship between structure and function across soluble proteins, membrane proteins, lipids, membranes, and nucleic acids. In addition to proteins, the textbook addresses carbohydrates to provide a complete view of essential biological macromolecules.

The volume features more than 400 color figures designed to illustrate a wide variety of biological structures and their functional assemblies.
