This volume provides a variety of methods used to analyze ADAMTS proteases and ADAMTS-like proteins, including their structure, substrate profile, tissue and cell distribution, post-translational modification and biological pathways. Chapters discuss genetic, cell biology, biochemical and proteomics techniques applicable to the analysis of all the members of the ADAMTS superfamily. Written in the highly successful
Methods in Molecular Biology
series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Cutting-edge and thorough,
ADAMTS Proteases: Methods and Protocols
is a valuable tool for researchers to study both simple and sophisticated methodologies that are often difficult to locate in primary research literature.
