Multicellular organisms must be able to adapt to cellular events to accommodate prevailing conditions. Sensory-response circuits operate by making use of a phosphorylation control mechanism known as the "two-component system." Sections in Two-Component Signaling Systems, Part B include: - Structural Approaches - Reconstitution of Heterogeneous Systems - Intracellular Methods and Assays - Genome-Wide Analyses of Two-Component Systems - Presents detailed protocols - Includes troubleshooting tips

Understanding how angiogenesis "works" and how to control it will have massive implications on the management, treatments, and ultimately the prevention of many common (and not so common) diseases. Angiogenesis is the growth of new blood vessels and is an important natural process in the body. A healthy body maintains a perfect balance of angiogenesis modulators. In many serious disease states, however, the body loses control over angiogenesis. Diseases that are angiogenesis-dependent result when blood vessels either grow excessively or insufficiently. - Tried-and-tested techniques written by researchers that developed them, used them, and brought them to fruition - Provides the "builder's manual" for essential techniques--a one-stop shop that eliminates needless searching among untested techniques - Includes step-by-step methods for understanding the cell and molecular basis of wound healing, vascular integrin signaling, mechanical signaling in blood vessels, and vascular proteomics

In the past several years, there has been an explosion in the ability of biologists, molecular biologists and biochemists to collect vast amounts of data on their systems. Biothermodynamics, Part C presents sophisticated methods for estimating the thermodynamic parameters of specific protein-protein, protein-DNA and small molecule interactions. The use of thermodynamics in biological research is used as an “energy book-keeping system. While the structure and function of a molecule is important, it is equally important to know what drives the energy force. These methods look to answer: What are the sources of energy that drive the function? Which of the pathways are of biological significance? As the base of macromolecular structures continues to expand through powerful techniques of molecular biology, such as X-ray crystal data and spectroscopy methods, the importance of tested and reliable methods for answering these questions will continue to expand as well. Elucidates the relationships between structure and energetics and their applications to molecular design, aiding researchers in the design of medically important molecules Provides a "must-have" methods volume that keeps MIE buyers and online subscribers up-to-date with the latest research Offers step-by-step lab instructions, including necessary equipment, from a global research community
