Main description:
International Review of Cytology presents current advances and comprehensive reviews in cell biology, both plant and animal. Articles address structure and control of gene expression, nucleocytoplasmic interactions, control of cell development and differentiation, and cell transformation and growth. Authored by some of the foremost scientists in the field, each volume provides up-to-date information and directions for future research. This volume contains the following articles: Interpretations of Mutants in Leaf Morphology; Regulation of Nuclear Import and Export by the GTPase RAN; The Role of Growth Factors in Tooth Development; Actin Dynamics in Platelets; Photoreceptor Renewal; and Specification of Developmental Fates in Ascidian Embryos.
- Interpretation of Mutants in Leaf Morphology: Genetic Evidence for a Compensatory System in Leaf Morphogenesis
- Regulation of Nuclear Import and Export by the GTPase Ran
- The Role of Growth Factors in Tooth Development
- Actin Dynamics in Platelets
- Photoreceptor Renewal:A Role for Perepherin/rds
- Specification of Developmental Fates in Ascidian Embryos: Maternal Determinants and Signaling Molecules
Review quote:
PRAISE FOR THE SERIES
"Invaluable reading for all biologists."
-NATURE
"In keeping with the high standards set by the editors...carefully prepared and edited in the customary fine format and well-illustrated style of Academic Press publications...this series is a significant contribution to a science that impinges on many fields."
-THE QUARTERLY REVIEW OF BIOLOGY
"A valuable addition to any college library as current reference material for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and professional scientists."
-CHOICE
"Maintains the tradition and set-up of the previous volumes and certainly provides up-to-date data on varied aspects of cytology...a valuable acquisition to any library."
-THE NUCLEUS
"Should be on the shelf of any biomedical library."
-Alvin Tesler, Northwestern Medical School, in DOODY'S
