Produktbeschreibung

Cells of the immune system are activated by a variety of stimuli that are derived from other cells, ingested material or from invading microorganisms. This issue of CTMI focuses on the mechanisms of phosphoinositide-mediated protein recruitment to intracellular membranes.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The book consists of seven chapters that focus on the various functions of PtdIns. ... summarises recent advances in the burgeoning field of inositol lipids and provides a snapshot of where the field stands in 2003. The field is moving rapidly but this volume will be a useful addition for many researchers who have only recently discovered that their favourite protein is regulated by PtdIns." (Shamshad Cockcroft, nature cell biology, Vol. 6 (6), June, 2004)
