Produktinformationen zu „Molecular Motors “
Molecular motor proteins produce force for movement in an incredibly wide variety of cellular processes. This volume explores the extreme functional and structural diversity of molecular motors and presents methods relevant to each motor family. In addition, it describes techniques directed at motors that fall outside of the three characterized families: dynamin and F1ATPase.
Klappentext zu „Molecular Motors “
Molecular motor proteins comprise three protein superfamilies: kinesins, dyneins and myosins. Together, these proteins produce force for movement in an incredibly wide variety of cellular processes including vesicular transport, cell division, nuclear migration, muscle contraction, mechanochemical transduction, among others. In addition, molecular motors are expressed in both simple eukaryotes and in a tissue specific manner in higher cells. This methods volume explores the extreme functional and structural diversity of molecular motors and presents methods relevant to each motor family. In addition, it describes techniques directed at motors that fall outside of the 3 characterized families (i.e. dynamin and F1ATPase). This volume of the Methods in Molecular Biology series is an essential reference for cell biologists examining the function of motor proteins in a range of model organisms using both in vitro and in vivo techniques. This volume is a valuble source for biochemists and molecular biologists as well.

Rezension zu „Molecular Motors “
From the reviews:"Within this book's 16 chapters, readers will find a rich source of not only step-by-step protocols and useful lists of the chemicals, reagents, and equipment needed to perform them, but also useful troubleshooting tips and experimental notes that can assist in their successful execution. ... the book is a treasure of data, facts, protocols, and references that nearly every cell biologist and biochemist with an interest in molecular motors will cherish." (Tzvi Tzfira, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 83, 2008)
