Description
"The Handbook of Cell Signaling, CD-ROM" covers all aspects of intracellular signal processing, including extra/intracellular membrane receptors, signal transduction, gene expression/translation, and cellular/organotypic signal responses. The subject matter has been divided into five main parts (each of which is edited by a recognized expert in the field): Initiation: Extracellular and Membrane Events; Transmission: Effectors and Cytosolic Events; Nuclear Responses: Gene Expression and Translation; Events in Intracellular Compartments; Cell-Cell and Cell-Matrix Interactions. Covered in extensive detail, these areas will appeal to a broad, cross-disciplinary audience interested in the structure, biochemistry, molecular biology and pathology of cellular effectors. Containing the full text found in the three-volume print edition (350 articles), this fully searchable CD-ROM contains 4-color images and links to PubMed. It contains 350 full-text articles with 4-color figures. It is fully searchable and easy-to-use; and contains links to PubMed.
Reviews / Votes
"...the concise manner in which each of the chapters is written makes this book both highly informative and accessible. Indeed, the editors have to be congratulated on maintaining a consistent format throughout, both with respect to the detail contained within each chapter and the style in which it is written." --NEUROMUSCULAR DISORDERS (2005)More details
