Reihe: Methods in Signal Transduction Series

This volume is an extension of the subjects covered in the first edition. There are 5 sections each with 4 to 7 chapters. The 1st and 5th sections will present advances in techniques for study of mammalian lipids over the past 6-7 years since the 1st edition was assembled. The 2nd and 3rd section concerning analysis of plant lipids and signaling are novel and will describe methodology not available elsewhere. Of practical interest will be the chapter outlining approaches to modify lipid production. The 4th section that deals with the impact of bioactive lipids on receptor function will be complementary to the extensive knowledge of lipid-mediated signaling pathways.



Key selling features:

- Broadly reviews lipid-mediated signal transduction

- Emphasizes mammalian and plant systems

- Includes contributions from leading researchers reviewing the most up-to-date protocols

- Reviews receptor systems as well as bioactive lipids used as signals

- Describes various methods used in the analysis of bioactive lipids
