Series: Methods in Molecular Biology. Num Pages: 342 pages, 11 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 276 x 203 x 23. Weight in Grams: 886.
The membranes surrounding cells and organelles constitute their interface with the local environment. The functions of membrane proteins include cell/cell and cell/extracellular matrix recognition, the reception and transduction of extracellular signals, and the tra- port of proteins, solutes and water molecules. Abnormal membrane protein expression has profound biological effects and may, for example, underlie phenotypic and functional differences between normal and tumour cells. Moreover the accessibility, particularly of plasma proteins traversing the plasma membrane of cells, makes them of particular ut- ity to the therapeutic intervention in disease. Indeed, it is estimated that of all currently licensed pharmaceuticals, approximately 70% ... Read more

Reviews for Membrane Proteomics
From the reviews: "This is an important resource for investigators interested in understanding patterns of membrane protein expression … which are helpful in the identification of novel markers of, or targets for intervention in, disease. … It will be quite useful for research investigators and students interested in this field. … This book will be ...
