Informationen zum Autor Malcolm Whitman, Amy Sater Klappentext Focusing on specific pathways or pathway components! Analysis of Growth Factor Signaling in Embryos provides the methods and guidelines for experimental design to study cell signaling in vertebrate embryos. With contributions from top researchers! the book incorporates molecular! cellular! and systems analysis while discussing signal transduction! protein phosphorylation! embryogenesis! pattern formation! and morphogenesis. It also covers multiple types of signaling components! including receptors! GTPases! and effector kinases! and discusses all of the major vertebrate embryonic model systems! such as Xenopus! mouse! zebrafish! and chick. This book will provide a foundation for further explorations of the cellular regulatory mechanisms governing vertebrate embryonic development. Zusammenfassung Focusing on specific pathways or pathway components, this book provides the methods and guidelines for experimental design to study major aspects of cell signaling in vertebrate embryos. It covers a broad range of topics in signaling and a variety of current model organisms. Inhaltsverzeichnis SIGNALS AND PATHWAYS Analysis of Canonical Wnt Signaling in Xenopus Embryos Wilson K.
