Protein Phosphatases
Protein phosphatases are a group of enzymes responsible for the dephosphorylation of various proteins and enzymes in a cell. This role is an extremely important one since protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is required for the regulation of a large number of cellular activities. Classification of Protein Phosphatases Analysis/Technology: Cell and Molecular Imaging Technology, Assay of Protein Phosphatases, MS and MNR, Genomics/Proteomics, cDNA Microarray Analysis Cellular Regulation: Substrates, Inhibitors, Regulation, Protein-Protein Interaction Biological Function: Antisense Studies, Transgenic and Knockout Animal Models in Vivo, Therapeutic Approaches
Protein Modules in Cellular Signalling
Dynamic stability of cells is a function of co-ordination and counterbalance between intracellular signalling events. Therefore, the knowledge of those molecules which form signalling cascades or signalling modules is of prime importance in understanding living processes. Signalling proteins, the component members of different cascades, are the focus of intense interest. Protein phosphorylation dephosphorylation is the prevalent mechanism by which signalling molecules transduce their signals.
Protein Tyrosine Phosphatases
This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with discussions on the latest advancements in protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) research used to investigate these essential enzymes and new inhibitors. The new techniques covered in the chapters of this book include studying enzymes in vitro, in cells, and in animal models through proteomics, genomics, and structural biology. Furthermore, new advances in pharmacology and drug design have contributed to the developing novel therapeutics that target PTPs. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Protein Tyrosine Phosphatases: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition is a valuable resource for both experienced and novel researchers in this field, and will lead to discoveries and accelerated progress in the field of PTP, signal transduction, and drug development.
Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Control of Metabolism
Although phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine is relatively rare compared to phosphorylation on serine or threonine residues, the past two decades of research into PTP function have led to a great appreciation of the critical role PTPs have in regulating basic cellular processes. Among these important roles is the regulation of cellular signaling pathways related to metabolism. This volume contains chapters which highlight many aspects of PTP function in the context of metabolism. Given the growing obesity and diabetes epidemics in the United States and throughout the world, the desire to identify possible therapeutic targets for treatment of these diseases is a high priority. In many ways, PTPs may be attractive drug targets since they are amenable to targeting with small molecules; however many challenges abound in making PTP inhibitors.

Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome
Progress in Clinical and Biological Research, Volume 384 The Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome and Other Aneuploid Conditions Proceedings of a National Down Syndrome Society Conference Held in New York, January 14 and 15, 1993 Charles J. Epstein, Editor In the last decade, considerable progress in the phenotypic mapping of Down syndrome and other syndromes caused by aneuploidy has been made, answering many perplexing questions and raising new ones. Of primary concern is the relationship between the individual components of the Down syndrome phenotype and the specific genes that give rise to them. In its continuing role of supporting basic research through scientific conferences, the Nation...
