Targeting Protein Kinases for Cancer Therapy

This book provides an overview of different protein kinases structure, function, regulation, and their role in cancer. Itcombines kinase biology with chemistry and pharmacologyapplications for discovery and development of cancer drugs. Thetext also describes existing and emerging kinase inhibitors,focusing mostly on small molecules but also alternative approacheslike therapeutic antibodies. Provides an important resource thathelps pharmaceutical researchers understand and work in thisdynamic area of cancer drug research.
