Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis: Important Enzymes, Novel Targets, and Therapies: Jenny Stanford Series on Biocatalysis

Editat de Peter Grunwald
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 noi 2020
This volume of Pharmaceutical Biocatalysis starts with a discussion on the importance of biocatalytic synthesis approaches for a sustainable and environmentally friendly production of pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Among the enzymes discussed in detail with respect to their pharmaceutical relevance are cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases playing an important role in modulating signal transduction in various cell types; human DOPA decarboxylase, related to Parkinson's disease and aromatic amino acid decarboxylase deficiency; and phospholipase D enzymes as drug targets. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 mutations are novel therapeutic targets in acute myeloid leukemia. An additional chapter is devoted to the use of enzymes for prodrug activation in cancer therapy. The other topics include small-molecule inhibitors targeting receptor tyrosine kinases in cancer, β-Lactams and related compounds as antibacterials, non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants for the treatment of thromboembolic diseases, and the molecular mechanisms for statin pleiotropy and its clinical relevance in cardiovascular diseases. The last chapter is a review of lysosomal storage disorders with an overview of approved drugs for treating these disorders by enzyme replacement therapy.

Notă biografică

Peter Grunwald studied chemistry at the Universities of Saarbrücken and Hamburg, Germany. He graduated in the field of high-frequency spectroscopy and then became a staff member of the Institute of Physical Chemistry. After receiving his PhD in physical chemistry, he founded a biotechnology research group. He was appointed professor in 2001. His research interests focus on immobilized biocatalysts, kinetics of enzymes in organic solvents, and interactions between biocatalysts and heavy metal ions. Prof. Grunwald is also interested in chemical education, including curriculum development. He has authored a textbook on biochemistry and is an editorial board member of Catalysts.

Recenzii

“This book is an important addition to the literature in this field. It not only summarizes the importance of enzymes as targets for pharmaceutical drug research in the past but also shows that there is still enormous potential in the future. Motivated by Peter Grunwald, a large group of experts have shared their specialist knowledge. The book a treasure for anyone working or doing research in the field.”
Prof. Theo Dingermann, Goethe University, Germany
“This book represents an outstanding scientific work. It covers the state of the art, challenges, and key achievements of research focusing on the use of enzymes for therapeutic purposes. It discusses the fundamentals of enzyme function and its applications and shows how this fantastic research field has been explored in drug discovery and innovation for gaining a better understanding of enzymes and their use for a better quality of life.”
