Kurzbeschreibung This book uniquely provides basic knowledge and principles of proteomic bioinformatics and mass spectrometry. Computational Methods for Mass Spectrometry Proteomics covers the bioinformatics problems and how they are solved, which types of programs are used and the different principles / algorithms underlying these programs. A description of the instruments used is also given. The book includes many examples to help make the subject practical and accessible.
