Advances in Developmental Biology, Volume 1a (Advances in Developmental Biology)
The inaugural volume of Advances in Developmental Biology and Biochemistry paints a rather broad stroke through the field. Pattern formation and cellular communication during animal development, as well as Y chromosome function during mammalian development, are major themes of this volume. Several experimental systems, including mice, flies, and worms are considered.
Development of Sea Urchins, Ascidians, and Other Invertebrate Deuterostomes: Experimental Approaches (Methods in Cell Biology)
This book provides a practical guide to experimental methods for studying the development of invertebrate deuterostomes, such as sea urchins, ascidians, hemichordates, and amphioxus. These model organisms are of contemporary and historical importance to the study of developmental biology, particularly genomic research. The chapters provide detailed experimental protocols that cover a broad range of topics in modern experimental methods. Topics covered range from rearing embryos to the care of ad...

Current Topics in Developmental Biology, Volume 46
by By Roger a Pedersen Edited
Sperm Biology represents the first analysis of the evolutionary significance of sperm phenotypes and derived sperm traits and the possible selection pressures responsible for sperm-egg coevolution. An understanding of sperm evolution is fast developing and promises to shed light on many topics from basic reproductive biology to the evolutionary process itself as well as the sperm proteome, the sperm genome and the quantitative genetics of sperm. The Editors have identified 15 topics of current...

Mitochondria (Methods in Cell Biology)
by Liza A Pon, Eric A Schon, Leslie Wilson, and Paul T. Matsudaira
This title employs biochemical, cell biological, and genetic approaches to study mitochondrial structure, function, and biogenesis. Also of interest are the consequences of impaired mitochondrial function on cells, tissues, and organs. The book is full of step-by-step "how to" methods with sample results, interpretations, and pitfalls. There is a unique set of appendices that include gene catalogs, mtDNA maps, and reagents for probing respiratory chain function. Finally, there are applications...
This series was established to create comprehensive treatises on specific topics in developmental biology. Such volumes serve a useful role in developmental biology, since it is a very diverse field that receives contributions from a wide variety of disciplines. This series is a meeting-ground for the various practi tioners of this science, facilitating an integration of heterogeneous information on specific topics. Each volume is intended to provide the conceptual basis for a comprehen sive und...
Despite its inherent controversy, the exploration of the human embryo can unlock many of the answers to our deepest biological questions. In Human Embryogenesis: Methods and Protocols, internationally recognized researchers contribute detailed methods to analyze various aspects of the embryogenesis process. While comprehensively covering subjects such as the molecular mechanisms of embryonic development, in vitro fertilization, cloning, and the laws and ethical considerations of working with emb...
A Laboratory Guide to the Mammalian Embryo
by David K Gardner, Michelle Lane, and Andrew J Watson
This book pulls together the full range of cell culture, biochemical, microscopic, and genetic techniques to study the early mammalian embryo. Until now, there has never been such a comprehensive compendium, though there have been more focused books of protocol, such as Manipulating the Mouse Embryo, from Cold Spring Harbor. This book is intended to appeal to all constituencies, from basic experimental science to clinical and animal science applications.
This Methods in Enzymology volume continues the description (initiated in Volume 85) of the purification and assay of this diverse group of proteins involved in cytoplasmic organization. It discusses some of the more promising attempts to apply techniques of molecular biology genetics and molecular cytochemistry to these proteins. The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of bioch...
