Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH): The Quintessential Moonlighting Protein in Normal Cell Function and in Human Disease examines the biochemical protein interactions of the multi-dimensional protein GAPDH, further considering the regulatory mechanisms through which cells control their functional diversity.
This protein's diverse activities range from nuclear tRNA export and the maintenance of genomic integrity, to cytoplasmic post-transcriptional control of gene expression and receptor mediated cell signaling, to membrane facilitation of iron metabolism, trafficking and…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH): The Quintessential Moonlighting Protein in Normal Cell Function and in Human Disease examines the biochemical protein interactions of the multi-dimensional protein GAPDH, further considering the regulatory mechanisms through which cells control their functional diversity.

This protein's diverse activities range from nuclear tRNA export and the maintenance of genomic integrity, to cytoplasmic post-transcriptional control of gene expression and receptor mediated cell signaling, to membrane facilitation of iron metabolism, trafficking and fusion.

This book will be of great interest to basic scientists, clinicians and students, including molecular and cell biologists, immunologists, pathologists and clinical researchers who are interested in the biochemistry of GAPDH in health and disease.
Autorenporträt
Michael A. Sirover, Ph.D., is a Professor of Pharmacology, Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, Philadelphia, PA. He received his B.S. in Biology from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, his Ph.D. from the State University of New York at Stony Brook and was a postdoctoral fellow at the Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia. He was an Associate Editor of the journal Cancer Research and, for over a decade, was the Chair of a National Cancer Institute Special Advisory Committee on Cancer Prevention. Dr. Sirover is one of the pioneers in the identification and characterization of multifunctional proteins. His early work on glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) helped establish it as the prime example of this new class of cell proteins. His studies focused on its proliferative dependent regulation, including distinctive changes in its subcellular localization as a function of the cell cycle, its proliferative-dependent transcriptional and translational regulation, its role in DNA repair, the pathology of age-related neurodegenerative disease and the cellular phenotype of Bloom's syndrome, a cancer protein human genetic disorder. He isolated and characterized anti-GAPDH monoclonal antibodies and the human GAPDH gene, each of which were subsequently used by many other researchers in their individual GAPDH studies. Lastly, he is the author of the definitive reviews of GAPDH structure and function as well as its role in the pathology of human disease.
