Résumé : |
Introduction to Biological Membranes: Composition, Structure and
Function, Second Edition is a greatly expanded revision of the first edition
that integrates many aspects of complex biological membrane functions with
their composition and structure. A single membrane is composed of hundreds
of proteins and thousands of lipids, all in constant flux. Every aspect of
membrane structural studies involves parameters that are very small and fast.
Both size and time ranges are so vast that multiple instrumentations must be
employed, often simultaneously. As a result, a variety of highly specialized
and esoteric biochemical and biophysical methodologies are often utilized.
This book addresses the salient features of membranes at the molecular level,
offering cohesive, foundational information for advanced undergraduate
students, graduate students, biochemists, and membranologists who seek a
broad overview of membrane science.
- Significantly expanded coverage on function, composition, and
structure- Brings together complex aspects of membrane research in a
universally understandable
manner- Features profiles of membrane pioneers detailing how contemporary
studies
originated- Includes a timeline of important discoveries related to membrane science
