Branched Chain Amino Acids [Hardcover]

This volume includes chapters on the newest techniques for measuring metabolites of branched-chain amino acids, many new enzyme assays such as the measurement of isozymes of acetohydroxacid synthase, and the purification of recently described enzymes such as isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase.Analytical and Synthetic Methods:
