Description for Connexin Methods and Protocols
hardcover. Describes the techniques to study the cellular and molecular biology of connexins, as well as physiological properties. This book also discusses the many specific theoretical aspects of connexin biology and physiology. It offers a collection of methods for studying the role of connexins in intercellular communication and human genetic disorders. Editor(s): Bruzzone, Roberto; Giaume, Christian. Series: Methods in Molecular Biology. Num Pages: 491 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PDN; PSBC; PSD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 30. Weight in Grams: 879.
Direct cell–cell communication is a common property of multicellular organisms that is achieved through membrane channels which are organized in gap junctions. The protein subunits of these intercellular channels, the connexins, form a multigene family that has been investigated in great detail in recent years. It has now become clear that, in different tissues, connexins speak several languages that control specific cellular functions. This progress has been made possible by the availability of new molecular tools and the improvement of basic techniques for the study of membrane channels, as well as by the use of genetic approaches to study protein ...
