Dalla quarta di copertina
The Most Comprehensive And Definitive Work on Protein Targeting, Transport and Translocation!
The mechanisms of protein synthesis are well known. However, once synthesized, proteins must be transported across membranes and/or be directed towards other sites or macromolecular structures in order to function. Exactly how they achieve this, in what can be a hostile environment, is a matter of much current interest. Written by experts in the field, Protein Targeting, Transport & Translocation provides a current and exciting synthesis of this fast-moving, and hot topic.
Protein Targeting, Transport & Translocation is a must for researchers working in all areas of protein science including protein targeting, secretion, folding, assembly, structure, localization, quality control, degradation and antigen presentation. This book is essential reading for senior undergraduate/postgraduate students studying biochemistry, protein science, cell biology, molecular biology, biophysics, biotechnology, microbiology, chemistry and pharmacology.|The Most Comprehensive And Definitive Work on Protein Targeting, Transport and Translocation!
