This book provides an essential overview of the role of phosphoinositide-3-phosphate kinase (PI3K) isoforms in modulating the function of immune system cells and their involvement in disease.
Foams and froths are an important feature of everyday life; one only has to think of shaving foam, foam upholstery, fire fighting foam, bread, bear head, and ice cream.
This fully updated volume assembles a comprehensive collection of methods, techniques, and strategies to investigate the molecular and cellular biology of peroxisomes in different organisms.
The book covers areas of cellular physiology and metabolism that are of interest to scientists involved in research in diabetes and metabolic diseases.
Lifelong Motor Development is a comprehensive, science-based text covering background, theory, and research in the field of physical growth and motor behavior across the life span, as well as the practical application of these concepts.
This new volume, a part of the Proteomics, Metabolomics, Interactomics and Systems Biology series, will explain how proteomic studies of post-translational modifications (PTMs) can be applied to neurodegenerative diseases and relevant studies.
Phospholipases generate lipid signaling molecules through their hydrolytic action on phospholipids and are known to regulate function of a variety of cells under normal and diseased conditions.
Biobanking, an emerging field supported by academia, industry and health administrators alike, is distinctly different today from the practice that once defined it.
This book covers important topics such as the dynamic structure and function of the 26S proteasome, the DNA replication machine: structure and dynamic function and the structural organization and protein-protein interactions in the human adenovirus capsid, to mention but a few.
This handbook presents a compilation of plant histopathology laboratory practices and microscopy techniques for study plant tissues under biotic stress.
This book should be regarded as the continuation to my previous book Developmental Biology of the Sea Urchin Embryo, edited by the Academic Press in 1973, rather than as a new edition.
The knowledge of Th17 cells and other cell populations which secrete IL-17A, and/or IL-22 has expanded tremendously since the publication of the first edition "e;Th17 Cells: Role in Inflammation and Autoimmune Disease"e; in 2008.

The study of bacterial spores spans biosecurity to ecology The first articles describing the sporulation process were published by Robert Koch and Ferdinand Cohn in the late 19th century.
In this volume the contributions of the 2nd International EBSA (European Biophysical Societies Association) Symposium devoted to the biophysical and biochemical aspects of the structure and interaction of cytoskeletal and extracellular proteins are presented.
Detecting Signals at the Single Molecule Level: Pioneering Achievements in MicroscopyRecent advances have led to such remarkable improvements in fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy's (FLIM) capacity for contrast and sensitivity that researchers can now employ it to detect signals at the single molecule level.
Mathematics for Biological Scientists is a new undergraduate textbook which covers the mathematics necessary for biology students to understand, interpret and discuss biological questions.
In the continuing quest to explore structure and to relate struc- tural organization to functional significance, the scientist has developed a vast array of microscopes.
