Электронная книга: Arieh Warshel «Theory and Applications of the Empirical Valence Bond Approach. From Physical Chemistry to Chemical Biology»
A comprehensive overview of current empirical valence bond (EVB) theory and applications, one of the most powerful tools for studying chemical processes in the condensed phase and in enzymes. Discusses the application of EVB models to a broad range of molecular systems of chemical and biological interest, including reaction dynamics, design of artificial catalysts, and the study of complex biological problems Edited by a rising star in the field of computational enzymology Foreword by Nobel laureate Arieh Warshel, who first developed the EVB approach Издательство: "John Wiley&Sons Limited"

Arieh Warshel is a professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the
Known for his work on
Warshel and his coworkers have introduced the key approaches and concepts in modeling biological functions. These include the development of the simplified folding model [cite journal |author=Levitt M, Warshel A.| year=1975| title=Computer Simulations of Protein Folding| journal=Nature| volume=253|pages=694| doi=10.1038/253694a0] , the introduction of MD simulations of Biological processes [cite journal |author=Warshel A.| year=1976| title=Bicycle-pedal Model for the First Step in the Vision Process| journal=Nature| volume=260|pages=679| doi=10.1038/260679a0] [cite journal |author=Warshel A.| year=2002|title=Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Biological Reactions| journal=Acc. Chem. Res.| volume=35|pages=385–395|doi=10.1021/ar010033z] , and the introduction of the first description of the catalytic effect in an entire enzyme-substrate complex solvated by Langevin dipoles cite journal| author=Warshel A, Levitt M| year=1976| title=Theoretical Studies of Enzymatic Reactions: Dielectric Electrostatic and Steric Stabilization of the Carbonium Ion in the Reaction of Lysozyme| journal=J. Mol. Biol.| volume=103| pages=227| doi=10.1016/0022-2836(76)90311-9] . This constituted the foundation of the combined quantum mechanical/molecular mechanics ( Warshel introduced microscopically based thermodynamic cycles to studies of biological processes [ cite journal| author=Warshel A| title=Calculations of Enzymic Reactions: Calculations of pKa, Proton Transfer Reactions, and General Acid Catalysis Reactions in Enzymes| journal=Biochemistry| volume=20|pages=3167| doi=10.1021/bi00514a028| year=1981] and was the first to introduce Warshel introduced microscopic calculations of electrostatic energies in proteins cite journal| author=Warshel A, Levitt M| year=1976| title=Theoretical Studies of Enzymatic Reactions: Dielectric Electrostatic and Steric Stabilization of the Carbonium Ion in the Reaction of Lysozyme| journal=J.

Rev. Biophys.| volume=17|pages=283] and demonstrated the overriding importance of electrostatic interactions in protein functions and paved the way for quantitative studies of electrostatic energies in macromolecules [cite journal|author=Warshel A, Sharma P K, Kato M, Parson W W.| year=2006| title=Modeling Electrostatic Effects in Proteins| journal=Biochim.
