Molecular Plant Biology Vol. 1 (Molecular Plant Biology (Paperback), #1) (Practical Approach)
Molecular Plant Biology is an all-new replacement for the original Practical Approach book Plant Molecular Biology that was first published in 1988. The rapid advances made in plant sciences during the past decade are reflected by the need to produce a two-volume book to cover all the relevant methodologies. The new book incorporates many of the fundamental procedures outlined in the original book, but these are fully updated to reflect advances technology and the development of new methodolog...
The study of plant cell expansion involves many different disciplines and technical approaches, and this book brings this diversity together to present a multifaceted view of the most up-to-date knowledge. Coverage includes data ranging from biophysical measurements and chemical analysis to molecular biological approaches and microscopy.
Methoden Im Biolabor: Polymerase-Kettenreaktion

Hier werden Ihnen die biochemischen, molekularbiologischen und technischen Grundlagen der PCR vermittelt und gezeigt, wie Sie aus Literaturdaten oder auch fur neue eigene Fragestellungen erfolgreiche PCR-Experimente etablieren konnen. Neben dem notwendigen Wissen uber konventionelle PCR erfahren Sie auch alles Wichtige uber die Anwendung der Realtime-PCR und spezieller PCR-Techniken, wie beispielswei...
Extracellular Nucleotides and Nucleosides (Current Topics in Membranes, #54)
by Erik Mills Schwiebert
Purinergic receptors are proteins that bind ATP as their extracellular ligand. Once thought only as an intracellular molecule that provides energy, ATP is also now considered an essential autocrine/paracrine agonist that acts extracellularly within tissues and tissue microenvironments. Receptors for ATP and its metabolites, so-called "purinergic receptors," are essential membrane receptors that transduce the extracellular signal carried by ATP. Many cell types or tissues express multiple type...
Neoglycoconjugates are not only useful for the basic understanding of protein-carbohydrate interactions, but they have many practical applications as well. They are powerful reagents in many cell biology studies and excellent tools for the isolation and characterization of animal and plant lectins, separation of cells, as well as for the targeting of drugs, artificial vaccines, and diagnostic reagents. Volume 247 and its companion Volume 242 contain many practical methods on how to prepare and u...
Includes up-to-date coverage on human health and disease. * Uses simple, clear language to convey the inspiring beauty of the structure and chemistry of life. * Early emphasis on recombinant DNA technology.
Pathologie, Klinische Zytologie, Histochemie, Onkologie, Hamatologie, Medizinische Informatik Das Buch beschreibt die Grundlagen und wichtige Anwendungen stereologisch-morphometrischer Methoden sowie der rechnergestutzten Bildverarbeitung auf dem Gebiet der klinischen Zytologie und Histopathologie. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf dem Gebiet der Histometrie, einer sehr jungen Disziplin, in der bisher eher stereologische interaktive Methoden Anwendung fanden. Nicht nur die verschiedenen Messverfa...
Advances in Enzyme Regulation (Advances in Enzyme Regulation, #44)
by G. Weber
This volume concentrates on subjects in the field of enzyme regulation which have reached the stage of productive summarization and critical evaluation in the light of extensive new results. This volume, comprising 21 articles by leading authorities, lives up to its goal of advancing a few steps ahead of the general front of mammalian enzyme regulation studies.
Loose Leaf Version for Genetics: Analysis and Principles
by Robert J Brooker
The role that primary amino acid sequences plays in influencing the partitioning of polypeptides between productive folding and irreversible aggregation pathways has introduced a whole new dimension to the folding problem. The volume deals with the structures of the products of protein misassembly and the role of amino acid sequences in favoring these structures.
The Golgi Apparatus: State of the Art 110 Years After Camillo Golgi's Discovery
Primary and Secondary Metabolism of Plant Cell Cultures
At the end of the initial meeting on Primary and Secondary Metabolism of Plant Cell Cultures at Schloss Rauischholzhausen, it was decided to convene similar events on a regular basis midway between the International Congress for Plant Tissue and Cell Cul ture. We felt it was necessary to bring representatives of the research teams working in this field together to assess progress as well as to discuss future directions. The Plant Biotechnology Institute of the National Research Council of Canada...

Molecular Evolution of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (NATO ASI Subseries H, #59)
From molecules to populations and back In biology, the most vigorous organisms often ensue from a union of two disparate, pure lines. In science, too, laws of hybrid vigor seem to operate at the interface between two disciplines, an interface that often proves to be fertile ground for germinating concepts and new outlooks. The fringes of research into the major histocompatibility complex (Mhc) have provided such an interface several times in the past and the encounters have invigorated fields su...
Modeling Protein Evolution and Its Bioinformatics Applications
by Goldstein Richard A
While there are many books available on bioinformatics and on molecular evolution, there are none that adequately address the interaction of these two areas. Filling this gap, this book covers both the fundamentals of evolutionary theory and its application to bioinformatics. It gives readers a broad overview of the nature of molecular evolution, techniques that have been developed for modelling this evolution, tools to interpret biological information in an evolutionary context, and software th...
