The Myc Gene by Soucek, Laura; Whitfield, Jonathan;

Hosszú leírás:

This second edition provides new and updated chapters detailing recent advances in MYC research and current techniques. Chapters guide readers through protocols on how to express and purify MYC protein, X-ray crystallography, NMR, techniques to study how MYC is modified, apoptosis, senescence, proliferation, metabolic changes, translation, tumorigenesis,reprogramming, and clinical application of MYC studies.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.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, The Myc Gene: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
