BOOK
Inhibitors of Nucleic Acid Synthesis Biophysical and Biochemical Aspects
This monograph examines antibiotics and chemical agents that inhibit nucleic acid synthesis, with particular focus on their biophysical and biochemical mechanisms of action. The authors analyze how inhibitors interact with DNA, RNA, and associated enzymes, and how these interactions affect replication and transcription processes.
Rather than providing only a descriptive review, the book emphasizes experimental approaches used to investigate inhibitor–target interactions. The work highlights the role of nucleic‑acid synthesis inhibitors as research tools for understanding fundamental mechanisms of replication, transcription, and translation. It forms Volume 18 of the series Molecular Biology, Biochemistry and Biophysics and is intended for researchers and advanced students in biochemistry, molecular biology, and pharmacology.
