Lipid Rafts and Caveolae —— From Membrane Biophysics to Cell Biology

----- 膜脂筏与细胞膜穴样内陷：从膜生物物理学到细胞生物学

ISBN: 9783527312610 出版年：2006 页码：296 Christopher J Fielding Wiley

This keenly awaited first overview of the field represents a complete guide to the structure and function of the most important mammalian cell membrane organelles. Filling a huge gap in the primary literature, this book is the first to cover the subject in detail. Following an introduction by Kai Simons, the discoverer of lipid rafts and the most prominent scientist in the field, chapters include: Historical background Distinct structures and functions Structural basis Signaling Viral entry and virion budding Cholesterol transport Caveolins Lipid shells Cell polarity and intracellular trafficking Cancer cells Of prime importance to molecular and cell biologists, biochemists, membrane scientists, cancer researchers, and virologists.
