Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

In this volume

expert researchers in the field detail the many methods for further research into regulation of mitochondrial function. Chapters focus on mitochondria with other cellular components, discussing how these interactions influence the dynamics of mitochondrial structure and biogenesis. 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 key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical,

Mitochondrial Regulation: Methods and Protocols

seeks to aid advanced undergraduates, graduates, postgraduates, and beginning researchers in the areas of molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry and bioenergetics.
