Since the 1990's when the first structures were determined by means of X ray diffraction, the number of NR structures has increased considerably. Moreover several 'omics' projects (genomics, pharmcogenomics and proteomics) have opened up great opportunities for the discovery of new targets, the characterization of abnormal protein patterns, the selection of "tailored" drugs and the evaluation of drug efficacy even with a lack of structural data. Furthermore, structure-based drug design, computational methods for in silico screening and nanobiotechnology- based tools are simplifying this time-consuming and money-intensive research of lead compounds and, possibly, new drugs. Biological interactions such as those that occur between a protein and ligand are concerted events where flexible molecules interact. Thus understanding flexibility of large molecules or biological complexes is of primary importance to help define the right model to approximate the reality for drug discovery, virtual screening, food safety analysis, etc. NRs are known as flexible targets, with many structural similarities, in particular for their Ligand Binding Domain: these similarities could be assumed to share behavioural qualities that belong to this class of compounds. Thus to supply a possible, complete and exhaustive answer to questions about the behaviour of NRs, their interactions with new potential drugs, endocrine disruptors such as animal and human food toxins, food additives or industry residuals, it is mandatory to approach the problem from a different point of view: a molecular modelling approach, steered synthesis, and in vitro and in vivo tests, etc. The aim of this book is to provide a state of the art review on investigations into Nuclear Receptors."--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Nuclear receptors (Biochemistry)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh96008334 650 0 Nuclear receptors (Biochemistry)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh96008334|xData processing.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005487 650 7 Nuclear receptors (Biochemistry)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1040875 650 12 Receptors, Cytoplasmic and Nuclear.|0https:// id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018160 650 22 Computers, Molecular.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D039301 650 22 Models, Biological.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D008954 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Cozzini, Pietro.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb2012029731 700 1 Kellogg, Glen E.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb2012029732 776 08 |iPrint version:|tComputational approaches to nuclear receptors.|dCambridge : RSC Publishing, ©2012 |z9781849733649|w(OCoLC)821677937 830 0 RSC drug discovery series ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2010092643|v30. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=519390|zOnline eBook.
