Not only in business circles, but also in the field of education, increasingly more activities are performed using a project-based approach. Consider,...

This volume details comprehensive state-of-the-art methods on actin microfilaments and microtubules and how they work to achieve different cellular functions in different cellular contexts. Chapters guide readers through protein purification, in vitro reconstitution of several cytoskeleton properties, analyses of microtubule- and...

This volume provides an overview about main RNA editing mechanisms, focusing on their functions in physiological as well as pathological conditions. Chapters guide readers through state- of-the art methodologies to investigate RNA editing through wet and dry approaches. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology...

This volume describes a range of standard and novel methodological approaches used to probe ion channel function across different modalities. Chapters guide readers through methods and protocols from an introduction to the decades old patch clamp method for the ion channel neophyte to more complex, recent protocol advances, such as...

This second edition book provides complete coverage of the computational approaches currently used in Synthetic Biology.  New chapters detail computational methods and algorithms for the design of bio-components, insight on CAD programs, analysis techniques, and distributed systems. Written in the highly...

This volume explores the basic issues of “allostery” and “network” that are fundamental to studying this field. Chapters in this book look at how the basic “machine-like” proteins, that are similar to “human machines,” need to be organized, architecturally, to relate to different...

This volume provides detailed protocols for the performance, analysis, and troubleshooting of in vitro and in vivo experiments related to programmed cell death. Chapters compile conventional techniques such as western blot and qPCR and state-of-the art transmission electron microscopy and...
