Virus Receptors
It is hardly necessary to define the concept of receptors to readers of this series, but it should be born in mind that in several instances receptors are undefined entities, whose molecular details remain to be established. On the other hand the ligand, which reco~izes the receptors, has been identified and characterized in most cases. The current interest in the structure and function of biological membranes gives great expectations that in the near future we may understand the details of ligand-receptor interaction. This interaction involves two defined steps: the first, usually referred to as recognition, is followed by the second step, transduction, in which the ligand-receptor interact...
The Molecular Biology of Poliovirus
Years ago when we were asked to write a book on the present-day knowledge of the molecular biology of poliovirus, we did not expect that such an apparently simple task could involve so much time and effort. Our writing was hampered by the fact that both of us are full time "workers", so that this monograph is mainly a spare time expedience. The main attention of this book focuses on a detailed review of the molecular biology of poliovirus and especially on the advances of the last decade; medical and environmental aspects are only briefly mentioned. Observations from older studies are considered in view of more recent information. Some of the older ob servations provided fundamental insights...
International Review of Cytology
International Review of Cytology
Bioanalytical Instrumentation
Concerned with application of special instrumental methods to problems in biology. Describes the use of x-ray crystallography in biochemistry. Reviews the application of both transmission microscopy and scanning probe microscopy to biological problems. Discusses well-developed techniques used primarily in clinical laboratories.
Targets for the Design of Antiviral Agents
This pUblication contains the Review Lectures presented at a joint NATO Advanced Study Institute and FEES Advanced Study Course held at Les Arcs, Bourg-8aint-Maurice, France, from the 19th June - 2nd July 1983. The Course, entitled "Targets for the Design of Antiviral Agents" was in some ways a sequel to the NATO-FEES Course held at SOGESTA (near Urbino), Italy from the 7th - 18th May 1979 and published as volume A26 in this series. During the subsequent four years, we have witnessed the first of the "new generation" of antiviral compounds, which are more efficacious and less toxic than the "classical" antiviral drugs, reach the clinic and we felt that it w~s the right time to assess the fut...
Coxsackieviruses
It is now just 40 years since coxsackieviruses were first isolated by Dalldorf and Sickles in the "eponymous" town of Coxsackie, New York. Yet the overall contribution of coxsackieviruses to clinically evident dis ease of humans is still largely an open problem. Following their discov ery, coxsackieviruses were under intense clinical and laboratory scrutiny for a long time. Because of their relationship to polioviruses, the under standing of their structure, biochemistry, biology, and epidemiology ad vanced rapidly as a result of the formidable efforts that eventually led to the defeat of poliomyelitis. The ability of these viruses to infect mice permitted dissection of their pathogenicity i...
Current Bibliography of Epidemiology
Monthly, with annual cumulations. Comprehensive, current index to periodical medical literature intended for use of practitioners, investigators, and other workers in community medicine who are concerned with the etiology, prevention, and control of disease. Citations are derived from MEDLARS tapes for Index medicus of corresponding date. Arrangement by 2 sections, i.e., Selected subject headings, and Diseases, organisms, vaccines. No author index.
The Inflatable Moment
Item presents a complete , annotated catalogue of the designs of the Utopie architects and reflects the social events and student protests of 1968.
