Transforming Molecular Biology with Emerging Technologies

This volume describes the latest laboratory practices used in molecular biology ranging from python-based interactive notebooks, a virtual reality-based approach to biochemistry, and an open source in silico drug screening. The chapters in this book emphasize rigor, reproducibility, scalability, and ethical integration of new technologies, and also include a discussion on measuring aptamer-protein interactions to help inform these experimental approaches. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Transforming Molecular Biology with Emerging Technologies is a valuable resource for researchers who are interested in learning more about the ways that emerging technologies can help advance their studies in the field of molecular biology.
