PROTEOMICS Cellular proteins and peptides. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Fernando Fussi   -  Fernando Fussi, 2013  - 

SummaryThe book, divided in 16 Sections, classifies and describes the properties of the numberless proteins and peptides constituting the main portion of the living cells. A special attention is devoted to peculiar arguments, as:genome structure, mutations and mutagens, gene repair and apoptosis, gene manipulation (Sect.1);analysis and synthesis of peptides and polynucleotides (Sect.2);simple and conjugate proteins, visual cycle, circadian clocks, heme proteins (Sect.3);carrier proteins, proteases and inhibitors, factors of haemostasis and fibrinolysis (Sect.4);collagens, keratins, proteoglycans (Sect.5);adhesion proteins and ligands, spermatogenesis, fertilization (Sect.6);structural proteins, cytoskeleton components, contractile systems (Sect.7);innate and adaptative immunity, antigens and antibodies, T and B effectors, cytotoxio mechanisms, the inflammatory response (Sect.8);growth factors, stem cells and reprogramming, embryogenic and morphogenic proteins, neurotrophic factors, chaperonins (Sect.9);ion channels, transporters, tcxins and animal neurotoxins (Sect.10);translocation, transmembrane channels, vesicle formation and endo-exocytosis (Sect.11);short range messengers (cytokines): interleukins, tumor necrosis factor family, interferons (Sect.12);long distance messengers: peptidic and proteic hormones (Sect.13);synaptic transmission, neuropeptides, neurotransmitters and neuroreceptors, molecular basis of memories, appraisal, cognition, mood, and their disturbances (Sect.14);biochemistry of signal transduction: first and second messengers, signaling receptors and cyclases, G proteins and GTPases, phosphorylative modulation and protein kinases, other enzymatically driven intracellular regulations (Sect.15);virus structure and classification, phagi, episomes, plasmids, viral diseases, prions, protein conformation-dependent diseases, dementias (Sect.16);Trends in cancer pharmacological therapy (App.B);Some nuclear transcription factors (App.C).
