Signalling by Inositides: A Practical Approach [Paperback]

Stephen Shears (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 15, 1997 | ISBN-10: 0199636389 | ISBN-13: 978-0199636389 | Edition: 1

Inositide research has infiltrated numerous branches of biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology. Consequently, methodological information has been scattered far and wide. This book unites a wide selection of the most fundamental and commonly used techniques. Contributors come from international signal transduction laboratories that have been actively involved in developing and refining these techniques. A unique feature of the book is a catalog of non-commercial sources of synthetic inositide analogues. Because there's an emphasis on broader applications instead of the more esoteric methods, this latest volume in the Practical Approach series is useful as an introduction and a refresher for new and seasoned inositologists, respectively.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The graphs, diagrams, tables, and few half-tone illustrations are of good to excellent quality...The book is small and easy to handle and read...Complete list of suppliers at the end of the book....This small, well-written book should be useful for those who do not regularly work in this field. It contains clearly written and presented lab protocols that should be easy for anyone to follow and make work in their own laboratory."--Doody's Journal
