Targeting Protein Kinases for Cancer Therapy Matthews Hardback Wiley–Blackwell

Targeting Protein Kinases for Cancer Therapy\n\n\""This excellent book is a comprehensive review of protein kinases in the context of their roles in human cancer. ... [It] is an excellent resource for scientists involved in selecting potential drug targets and optimization of compounds that are likely to be effective. The involvement of protein kinases in cancer, and strategies for selecting drug targets is thoughtfully discussed, and protein structures, domains and sites of regulation are described in depth and in ways that are easy to follow and understand. Individual kinases are described from the biological perspective and in the context of efforts to target them, often with case studies to illustrate specific points in exquisite detail. Understanding these proteins at this level of detail is essential to understand how they can be targeted and what we can expect to observe in the clinic. Following description of the kinases themselves and their function and regulation in signalin]
