The Role of Complexin in Regulated Exocytosis
ISBN: 9783639014396 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work has studied the role of complexin in regulated exocytosis, a key mechanism underlies hormone and neurotransmitter release and understanding of which will help to design therapeutic interventions in a lot of neuronal diseases or endocrine diseases. The work here systematically dissects the vesicle stages leading up to exocytosis using a knockout-rescue strategy in a mammalian model system. The work shows that adrenal chromaffin cells from CPX II knockout mice exhibit a markedly diminished readily releasable vesicle pool, while showing no change in the kinetics of fusion pore dilation...

The Ubiquitin System in Health and Disease
ISBN: 9783540851066 / Angielski / Twarda / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ubiquitin system has two major functions in eukaryotic cells: it r- ulates protein degradation, which is essential for normal cellular fu- tion and for the removal of potentially harmful, damaged, or misfolded proteins, and it controls protein activity by regulating protein-protein interactions and subcellullar localization. The ubiquitin system is thus involved in processes as diverse as cell cycle progression, signal tra- duction, gene transcription, and DNA repair. Not surprisingly, defects in the ubiquitin system have been linked with numerous diseases such as cancer, in?ammation,...

Clinical Applications of Capillary Electrophoresis
ISBN: 9780896036390 / Angielski / Twarda / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The term "electrophoresis" was first used by Michaelis in 1909, to - scribe the migration of colloids in an electric field. The first practical elect- phoresis method was described by Tiselius in 1937. He used a U-tube filled with buffer layered on top of sample; migration could be monitored using Schlieren optics. In zone electrophoresis, the U-tube was replaced by paper, a support material employed simply to prevent or minimize diffusion of ions, so that ions applied in a narrow strip to the paper will separate and remain as relatively discrete zones. Paper was superceded by a variety of...

Calcium-Binding Protein Protocols: Volume 1: Reviews and Case Studies
ISBN: 9780896036888 / Angielski / Twarda / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Calcium plays an important role in a wide variety of biological processes. This divalent metal ion can bind to a large number of proteins; by doing so it modifies their biological activity or their stability. Because of its distinct che- cal properties calcium is uniquely suited to act as an on off switch or as a light dimmer of biological activities. The two books entitled Calcium-Binding Protein Protocols (Volumes I and II) focus on modern experimental analyses and methodologies for the study of calcium-binding proteins. Both extracel- lar and intracellular calcium-binding proteins are...

In recent years there has been a tremendous increase in our understanding of the functioning of the cell at the molecular level. This has been achieved in the main by the invention and development of new methodology, parti- larly in that area generally referred to as "'genetic en- neering." While this revolution has been taking place in the field of nucleic acids research, the protein chemist has at the same time developed fresh methodology to keep pace with the requirements of present day molecular bi- ogy.

Biology of Copper Complexes
ISBN: 9780896031234 / Angielski / Twarda / 598 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1928, it was discovered that copper was essential for normal human metabolism. Ten years later, 1938, it was observed that patients with rheumatoid arthritis had a higher than normal serum copper concentration, which returned to normal wi th remission of this disease. Thirteen years later, it was found that copper complexes were effective in treating arthritic diseaseS. The first report that copper complexes had antiinflammatory activity in an animal model of in- flammation appeared twenty-two years after the discovery of essen- tiality. In 1976, it was suggested that the active forms of...

Itisonlyrecently thatthe naturaloccurrenceoffree radicalsin biological tissue has become widely accepted, and that the suspi- cion with which biologists previously viewed the free radicals of radiationchemistryhas beenplacedin a broaderperspective. Now, oxygen-derived free radicals are considered respectable biochemi- cal intermediates, given always the caveat that unwanted tissue damage may arise if these active species are produced in such abundance that they overwhelm the natural antioxidant and free- radical defense mechanisms, or if these systems have become hypoeffective. Many factors,...

Regulatory Mechanisms of Intracellular Membrane Transport
ISBN: 9783540223023 / Angielski / Twarda / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book deals with the molecular mechanisms of membrane trafficking, a central eukaryotic cell biological process. In the post-genomic era many essential molecules involved in intracellular membrane/protein transport are emerging. A huge task now is to compile the molecular networks that govern these processes. Understanding of regulatory processes and participating molecules are likely to reveal global cellular regulatory circuits that couple membrane trafficking with other cellular functions. Such cell biological features are only starting to emerge. This book puts special emphasis on...
