Book Description
A fresh examination of the past successes of natural products as medicines and their new future from both conventional and new technologies. High-performance liquid chromatography profiling, combinatorial synthesis, genomics, proteomics, DNA shuffling, bioinformatics, and genetic manipulation all now make it possible to rapidly evaluate the activities of extracts as well as purified components derived from microbes, plants, and marine organisms. The authors apply these methods to new natural product drug discoveries, to microbial diversity, to specific groups of products (Chinese herbal drugs, antitumor drugs from microbes and plants, terpenoids, and arsenic compounds), and to specific sources (the sea, rainforest, and endophytes). These new opportunities show how research and development trends in the pharmaceutical industry can advance to include both synthetic compounds and natural products, and how this paradigm shift can be more productive and efficacious.

Telebomb
Author: John Handley
Publisher: AMACOM/American Management Association
ISBN: 9780814408339
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Uncontrolled deregulation of the telecommunications industry in the mid-1990's caused many businesspeople-honest and dishonest-to propose, fund, and carry out ventures designed to change the way the telecommunications industry worked. Telebomb not only describes the chaos that ensued, but also follows each of the long-term trends that emerged and that continue to endganger the industry today. This thought-provoking book, written by an industry insider, draws conclusions about the ultimate winners and losers during and after the telebomb--and offers practical advice to industry and government on how to avoid another, potentially more devastating repeat. *Bigger, more powerful, and more convoluted than ever, the telecommunications industry has not done nearly enough to right itself since the telebomb *No other author has as good a view of the inner workings of so many of the players in this huge industry *Now that the telecommunications industry is now inextricably linked with media, Internet, and other service providers, another implosion would be that much more disastrous for stockholders, employees, and customers

Secondary Metabolism and Differentiation in Fungi
Author: Bennett
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000110311
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
The first source to unite secondary fungal metabolism and morphogenesis in one volume, Secondary Metabolism and Differentiation in Fungi treats biological systems as parts of a whole rather than as a series of individual elements, highlighting research in genetics, molecular biology, and ecology. Featuring the expertise of 19 international authorities, each chapter is a rich source of experimentation ideas. The book facilitates the application of novel techniques to existing problems in molecular mycology and explores potentials for major new research. This indispensable guide to a key scientific field benefits biologists, chemists, and other scientists.

Handbook of Marine Natural Products
Author: Ernesto Fattorusso
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789048138333
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Handbook of Marine Natural Products" takes a fresh approach to describing the major themes of research in this rapidly developing field. This two volume reference work begins with a section that provides a taxonomic survey of the secondary metabolites of diverse marine life including microbes, algae, and invertebrates. This is followed by a demonstration of the techniques and strategies employed in modern structure elucidation of complex natural products. The natural roles of marine natural products are then explored in a series of focused chapters which include the topics of symbiosis, anti-predation and antifouling, chemical interactions, and defence against UV stress. Various routes which facilitate the understanding of marine natural product biosynthesis are subsequently explained and these are followed by an extensive set of chapters on the biomedical potential of marine natural products. The latter portion of this section considers the technologies and scientific disciplines necessary for advancing bioactive marine natural product lead compounds into actual pharmaceuticals. The reference work finishes with a selection of chapters describing marine toxins and their impact on public health and seafood resources. Final thoughts presented at the end of the second volume focus on the future of this field of investigation and discovery research. This publication is presented as a reference handbook and general concepts are emphasized and illustrated with numerous interesting examples, graphical information, and a comprehensive index. "Handbook of Marine Natural Products" introduces students who are at advanced undergraduate and entry graduate student levels to this fascinating multidisciplinary field. It is an ideal desk companion for courses focusing on this contemporary area.
