This volume, The Science of Algal Fuels (volume 25 of COLE), contains 26 chapters dealing with biofuels contributed by experts from numerous countries and covers several aspects of algal products, one being "e;oilgae from algae,"e; mainly oils and fuels for engines.
Cryo-electron microscopy, in combination with tomography, has emerged as a new technology for visualizing molecular structures at a resolution beyond even 1 A.
This fully updated edition targets not only those assays directly involved in the discovery of GPCR-active compounds but also those involved in cell-based experiments designed to study physiological responses.
normal and pathological mineralization in vertebrates but also with the interesting problems involved in the formation of in- tracellular deposits of calcium oxalate in plants.
Membrane Proteins, Volume 128 in the Advances in Protein Chemistry and Structural Biology series highlights new advances in the field, with this new volume presenting interesting chapters written by an international board of authors.
Fibroblast Growth Factors presents research and results from the leading global research group on FGF, providing up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of the field.
Presents the Therapeutic Potential for Caspase Inhibitors: Present and FutureCaspases represent one of the most specific protease families described to date.
The division of the mature mammalian brain and spinal cord into regions of "e;white"e; matter and "e;gray"e; matter is observable upon the most cursory inspection.
Mitophagy in Health and Disease: Mechanisms, Health Implications, and Therapeutic Opportunities is a complete reference to this key cellular process involved in homeostasis.
The publication of this book was undertaken with two purposes in view: to bring together informatian on the deposition by living organ- isms of unique skeletal structures composed of amorphous silica, and to review recent data on the involvement of silicon in physiological and biochemical processes.
The Movement of Molecules across Cell Membranes provides an understanding of the molecular basis of the movement of substances across the cell membrane by discussing the composition and structure of cell membranes.
Computational cell biology courses are increasingly obligatory for biology students around the world but of course also a must for mathematics and informatics students specializing in bioinformatics.
Charlie and the Tortoise shares the journey of how Charles Darwin discovered the connections between all animals on an adventure to some very unique islands.
Cellular Membranes in Development covers the proceedings of the 1963 22nd Symposium on "e;"e;The Society for the Study of Development and Growth"e;"e; held in Storrs, Connecticut.
The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is the favoured tool of many productive research groups throughout the world, serving as a useful model for fundamental principles and mechanisms, such as genome organization, differential gene regulation, cell-cycle control, signal transduction, or cellular morphogenesis.
Recent evidence proving the molecular link between unchecked, chronic inflammation and cancer has implicated the transcription factor NF-kB as a key factor in both inhibiting apoptosis and promoting cell proliferation.
This book discusses Mars' distinguishing characteristics, its position in the solar system its composition and atmospheric conditions, its moons, and how scientists have learned about Mars over time.
The cambium has been variously defined as follows: "e;The actively dividing layer of cells that lies between, and gives rise to, secondary xylem and phloem (vascular cambium)"e; (IAWA 1964); "e;A meristem with products of periclinal divisions commonly contributed in two directions and arranged in radial files.
The book provides a comprehensive overview of classic and modern approaches of centrosome research, including new aspects of centrosome functions focusing on primary cilia and their implications in numerous diseases.
The recognition of oxidative stress as a major factor in health, aging, and disease has led to a surge in research aimed at uncovering effective countermeasures in the form of antioxidants.
Originally published in 1913, The Theory of Evolution in the Light of Facts examines the theory of Descent; the book is a time capsule of information, providing a record of the explorations into Darwinian theory during the first half of the 20th century.
Research on intercellular communication through gap junctions has continued to expand, and the meeting on which this book is based brought together many scientists from many different countries and disciplines.
