The discovery of ribozymes triggered a huge interest in the chemistry and biology
of RNAs. Much of the recently made progress focusing on metal ions is addressed in
Volume 9. This book, written by 28 internationally recognized experts, provides a
most up-to-date view and it is thus of special relevance for colleagues teaching courses
in biological inorganic chemistry and for researchers dealing, e.g., with nucleic
acids, gene expression, and enzymology, but also for those in analytical and bioinorganic
chemistry or biophysics. Structural and Catalytic Roles of Metal Ions in RNA describes
metal ion-binding motives, methods to detect and characterize metal ion binding sites,
and the role of metal ions in folding and catalysis. It deals with diffuse metal ion
binding, RNA quadruplexes, the regulation of riboswitches, metal ions and ribozymes,
including artificial ribozymes. The ribosome, ribozymes and redox cofactors, as well
as the binding of kinetically inert metal ions to RNA are also considered
