About the Cover:

The cover shows the active site of hen egg-white lysozyme. The backbone structure of lysozyme is illustrated as a ribbon model, with side-chains for tryptophan 62, 63 and 108 as stick models. This is part of a lab featured in the article "An Integrated Biochemistry Laboratory, Including Molecular Modeling" (page 1026).
