High Pressure Effects in Molecular Biophysics and Enzymology is designed to acquaint biochemists, biophysicists, and graduate students with advances in the application of high pressure in connection with spectroscopy as a research tool in the study of biomolecules. The 23 chapters written by leading authorities present an overview of current approaches to the use of high pressure in research on enzyme kinetics, protein folding and structure, lipid bilayer structure and organization, lipid-protein interaction, and DNA structure. This important, timely volume is the first devoted exclusively to high-pressure effects in biochemistry and will be the definitive reference in its subject for the next several years.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"This volume is a result of the Steenbock Symposium on High-Pressure Effects in Molecular Biophysics and Enzymology . . . [It] is not an introduction to applications of pressure perturbation in biology. Rather, its purpose is to present the state of the art in this field. . . . As such, it will serve as a valuable reference for investigators who are either working in this field or who wish to become familiar with the important issues in pressure effects on biological systems, and ways to use pressure as a tool in biophysics. The 23 articles discuss the effects of pressure on biological systems, the interpretation of thermodynamic parameters derived from pressure perturbation, and physical chemical techniques that have been successfully combined with high-pressure perturbation. . . . This volume represents an important contribution to the literature covering methods and applications of high-pressure perturbation in biophysics."--The Quarterly Review of Biology
