Natural compounds, which have evolved their function over millions
of years, are often more efficient than man-made compounds if a
specific biological activity is needed, e.g. as an enzyme inhibitor
or as a toxin to kill a cancer cell. This book comprising of
sixteen technical chapters, highlights the chemical and biological
aspects of potential natural products with an intention of
unravelling their pharmaceutical applicability in modern drug
discovery processes. Key features: * Covers the synthesis,
semi-synthesis and also biosynthesis of potentially bioactive
natural products * Features chemical and biological advances in
naturally occurring organic compounds describing their chemical
transformations, mode of actions, and structure-activity
relationships *40 expert scientists from around the world report
their latest findings and outline future opportunities for the
development of novel and highly potent drugs based on natural
products operating at the interface of chemistry and biology *
Forward-looking: Addresses opportunities and cutting-edge
developments rather than well-documented basic knowledge, pinpoints
current trends and future directions in this rapidly-evolving field
* Application-oriented: Throughout the book, the focus is on actual
and potential applications in pharmacology and biotechnology This
book is an essential resource for natural products chemists,
medicinal chemists, biotechnologists, biochemists, pharmacologists,
as well as the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries.
