This book concentrates on an emerging area of research on vitamin-binding proteins, with emphasis on the nature of the binding of the vitamin ligand to a protein and its sequela. The various groups of vitamin-binding proteins are particularly significant as they relate to the absorption of vitamins from the gastrointestinal tract and their extra- and intracellular transport function.

Book Description
Vitamins are essential micronutrients available to animal organisms through the diet.This book takes a fresh approach to vitamin-binding proteins, with emphasis on the nature of the bindng of the vitamin ligand to a protein and its sequela. This is the first comprehensive book dealing with the subject.The book will be of interest to research workers and postgraduate students in the field of biochemistry and nutrition.
