Structural, functional, and physiological properties of anti-(4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl)acetyl antibodies during the course of affinity maturation

Computational biophysics and structural biology of proteins-a Special Issue in honor of Prof. Haruki Nakamura's 70th birthday

Receiving his initial training jointly in theoretical and applied physics at the University of Tokyo, Professor Haruki Nakamura has had a long and eventful scientific career, along the way helping to shape the way that biophysics is carried out in Japan. Concentrating his research efforts on the simulation of protein structure and function, he has, over his career arc, acted as director of the Institute for Protein Research (Osaka, Japan), director of the Protein Data Bank of Japan (PDBj), president of the Biophysical Society of Japan (BSJ), president of the Protein Science Society of Japan (PSSJ), and group leader and professor of Bioinformatics and Computational Structural Biology at Osaka University. In 2022, Prof. Haruki Nakamura turned 70 years old, and to mark this occasion, his scientific colleagues from around the world have combined their efforts to produce this Festschrift Issue of the IUPAB Biophysical Reviews journal around the theme of the computational biophysics and structural biology of proteins.
