In Eicosanoid Protocols, Elias A. Lianos and a panel of hands-on experts present cutting-edge methods for the study of eicosanoids, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes. The readily reproducible methods described hereconcentrate on studying the regulation of expression and function of enzymes, particularly cyclooxygenase (and its two isoforms), phospholipase A2, and lipoxygenases involved in the synthesis of established eicosanoids. Additional chapters are devoted to the characterization and distribution of the thromboxane A2 receptor in tissues and the biological roles of novel eicosanoids. Timely and authoritative, the methods in this book will help their users in exploring the pathobiology of inflammation. Eicosanoid Protocols offers new and established researchers powerful, state-of-the-art tools to probe the regulation and function of eicosanoids.

Lipase and Phospholipase Protocols is an important new compilation of cutting-edge techniques and strategies for the characterization, purification, and expression of mammalian lipases and phospholipases. The methods include the preparation of a variety of radiolabeled and fluorescent substrates for the determination of lipolytic activity, proven strategies for the expression and purification of recombinant lipases and phospholipases, and the characterization of lipases by such techniques as immunodetection, subunit size determination, lipase kinetics, and ligand interactions. In addition, there are methods for the molecular and genetic analysis of the lipases, the quantification of mRNA levels, and in vitro-coupled transcription/translation. The protocols cover more than a dozen specific enzymes, and many can be applied directly to all lipases and phospholipases. Lipase and Phospholipase Protocols constitutes a highly useful single-volume handbook of basic procedures and strategies to investigate this unique class of enzymes. Its step-by-step format works perfectly at the laboratory bench or by the computer, providing practical information and examples that will lead to successful design and execution of specific techniques. It not only furnishes a technical framework for the investigation of known lipases and phospholipases, but provides well-established methods readily daptable to the discovery of new lipase enzymes.

In Electron Microscopy Methods and Protocols, well-practiced experts describe in detail the key electron microscopy techniques used for examining cells, tissue, biological macromolecules, molecular structure, and their interactions. With emphasis on cryotechniques for quantitative biological X-ray microanalysis, the book also includes those methods that use antibodies to locate proteins within cells and that prepare and analyze nucleic acids, proteins, and protein-nucleic acid complexes. Numerous immunogold labeling techniques for precise ultrastructural localization, distribution, and quantitation of macromolecules in cryo-fixed or chemically-fixed cells are described in sufficient detail to provide practical insight into their advantages and limitations. Electron Microscopy Methods and Protocols offers both newcomers and established researchers wanting to expand their repertoire of cutting-edge electron microscopy techniques-each optimized for reproducibility and robust results-today's gold-standard laboratory manual.

The Academic Press FactsBooks series has established itself as the best source of easily-accessible and accurate facts about protein groups. Described as 'a growing series of excellent manuals' by Molecular Medicine Today, and 'essential works of reference' by Trends in Biochemical Sciences, the FactsBooks have become the most popular comprehensive data resources available. As they are meticulously researched and use an easy-to-follow format, the FactsBooks will keep you up-to-date with the latest advances in structure, amino acid sequences, physicochemical properties, and biological activity. In a set of four interrelated volumes, The Ion Channel FactsBook provides a comprehensive framework of facts about channel molecules central to electrical signaling phenomena in living cells. The fourth volume is devoted to Voltage-gated Channel Families, including those molecular complexes activated or modulated by calcium, potassium, and chloride. Key Features * Nomenclature * Expression * Sequence Analyses * Structure and function * Electrophysiology * Pharmacology * Information retrieval.
