Description for Actin-based Motility
Hardback. This book presents the cellular, molecular and physical aspects of production of force and movement by self-assembly of actin, one of the most abundant proteins in cells, into cytoskeletal filaments. The book covers insights coming from various disciplines. Editor(s): Carlier, Marie-France. Num Pages: 435 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MBGR; MJCL; PSC; PSF; TCB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 28. Weight in Grams: 912.
Since the discovery of actin by Straub in the 1950’s and the pioneering work of Oosawa on actin self-assembly in helical laments in the 1960’s, many books and conference proceedings have been published. As one of the most essential p- teins in life, essential for movement in organisms rangingfrom bacteria to higher eukaryotes, it is no surprise that actin has fascinated generations of scientists from many different elds. Actin can be considered as a “living treasure” of biology; the kinetics and thermodynamics of self-assembly, the dissipative nature of actin po- merization, the molecular interactions of monomeric and polymerized actin with ...
