Research and Markets: Handbook of Dynein Is Written By Active Researchers, With a Focus on Currently Used Biophysical, Biochemical and Cell Biological Methods

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/e05da4/handbook_of_dynein) has announced the addition of the "Handbook of Dynein" book to their offering.

This book draws together recent data on both cytoplasmic and flagellar dyneins and the proteins they interact with, to give the reader a clear picture of what is currently known about the structure and mechanics of these remarkable macro-molecular machines. This is a useful handbook for frontline researchers as well as a textbook for advanced students.

Besides comprehensive cover of structural information gained by electron microscopy, electron cryo-tomography, X-ray crystallography, and nuclear magnetic resonance, this book provides detailed descriptions of mechanistic experiments by single-molecule nanometry. The reports include in vitro studies of the motility of reconstituted complexes and in vivo studies of organisms expressing mutant dyneins. The recent technical improvements described, which have played an important part in recent advances, include the expression and preparation of recombinant dynein heavy chains or individual subdomains.

Readership Graduate students studying cell, molecular or structural biology, biochemistry, and biophysics; researchers in molecular and structural biology and biophysics.
