Description for Retinoid Protocols
Hardback. Describes the major techniques used in retinoid research. The text includes the methods of retinoid handling and analysis to complement new biochemical techniques for studying retinoid/protein interactions and molecular techniques for studying the biological and cellular functions of retinoids. Series: Methods in Molecular Biology. Num Pages: 434 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MJK; PSD; PSF; PSVD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 28. Weight in Grams: 837.
Interest in retinoic acid, the main biologically active derivative of vi- min A or retinol, increased dramatically between 1989 and 1993, following the cloning of nuclear receptors or RARs reported in 1987 (Fig. 1). Important discoveries since then have shown how RARs work as all-trans retinoic ac- dependent heterodimers with related nuclear receptors for 9-cis retinoic acid called RXRs. This has stimulated the development of synthetic analogs s- cific for each type of receptor, and opens the way to develop new methods for regulating pharmacologically the activity ofretinoic acid-dependent pathways of gene activation. The potential for the development of new ... Read more
