Guidebook to the Cytoskeletal and Motor Proteins

Since the first edition, many new and important discoveries have been made in this expanding area of research. This updated edition details all that is currently known about the proteins involved in the microfilament, microtubule and intermediate filament systems in cells and their roles in tension resistance and motor function. Biochemists will fin this book particularly useful as will physiologists and biologists in fields in which these proteins are involved, such as neuromuscular research. This book is intended for postgraduates and researchers in biochemistry, cell biology and biomedical sciences - both newcomers to the field and specialists.
