Cell Fusion Overviews and Methods
Cell Fusion Overviews and Methods by Elizabeth H. Chen, published by Humana Press on November 19, 2010, is a comprehensive resource that delves into the biological process of cell fusion. This softcover reprint of the hardcover first edition from 2008 spans 421 pages and is presented in English. The book features contributions from leading experts who outline the current understanding of cell fusion, detailing both commonalities and differences among various cell fusion events across different biological models, from yeast to mammals.
Readers will find a structured approach divided into two parts: the first consists of nine overviews that describe distinct cell fusion events, while the second includes thirteen chapters that present widely used methods for assaying cell fusion in specific systems. Each methods chapter offers step-by-step protocols, necessary materials, and troubleshooting tips, making it accessible for both experts and novices in the fields of biochemistry, molecular biology, and cell biology. This edition serves as a valuable reference for those interested in the intricate dynamics of cell fusion and its applications in life sciences.
Official synopsis Publisher
Exciting work in the past decade has revealed commonalities and differences among individual cell fusion events. In Cell Fusion: Overviews and Methods, a team of leading experts provide a collection of overviews that outline our current understanding of cell fusion and methods that present classic and state-of-the-art experimental approaches in a variety of systems. Divided into two convenient parts, the volume begins with nine overviews which describe different cell fusion events in models from yeast to mammals, and it continues with thirteen chapters illustrating commonly used methods to assay cell fusion in particular systems. As a part of the highly successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series, these methods chapters compile step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols with lists of the necessary materials and reagents, along with tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Cutting-edge and user-friendly, Cell Fusion: Overviews and Methods serves as a comprehensive resource for anyone, expert or novice, interested in the fascinating biological process of cell fusion.
