Preface Proteins are essential constituents of all organisms and they participate in virtually every process within cells. These macromolecules are to be found in roles that are enzymatic, regulatory, structural, and immunological to name but a few. In order to elucidate the structure and function of any protein it is first necessary to purify it, and consequently many purification schemes and chromatographic methods for the isolation of native proteins from complex sources have been developed over the years. Every protein has its own particular sequence of amino acids that is determined by the nucleotide sequence of a corresponding gene. The last 40 years or so has witnessed revolutionary changes in experimental biology, and in particular in the way that we identify, isolate, a
