Provides a comprehensive set of articles describing the use and application of state-of-the-art methodologies to identify and characterize these GTPases and their expanding list of regulators and effectors. This work also includes methodologies focused on biochemical, molecular …
Edward J. Manser and Thomas Leung have collected the key techniques currently in use to probe the function of these ubiquitous proteins both in vitro and in vivo. Presented in a format that ensures ready reproducibility by accomplished experimentalists who have refined the vario…
Small GTPase binding proteins (GTPases) are an ancient group of proteins that play key roles in almost every aspect of cell biology, from cell proliferation to nuclear transport. In GTPase Protocols: The Ras Superfamily, Edward J. Manser and Thomas Leung have collected the key t…
