A variety of complementary techniques and approaches have been used to characterize peptide and protein unfolding induced by temperature, pressure, and solvent. Volume 62, Unfolded Proteins , assembles these complementary views to develop a more complete picture of denatured peptides and proteins. The unifying observation common to all chapters is the detection of preferred backbone confirmations in experimentally accessible unfolded states. Key Features * Peptide and protein unfolding induced by temperature, pressure, and solvent * Denatured peptides and proteins * Detection of preferred backbone confirmations in experimentally accessible unfolded states
