About the Book

Leading investigators describe in detail their best techniques to study the cellular and molecular biology of connexins, as well as physiological properties. These forefront methods are specifically designed to investigate the life of connexins from biosynthesis to assembly into gap junction channels, and also include powerful assays to perform functional studies on these routes of cell cell communication. Also discussed are the many specific theoretical aspects of connexin biology and physiology. Cutting-edge and highly practical, Connexin Methods and Protocols offers laboratory researchers a comprehensive collection of proven methods for studying the role of connexins in intercellular communication and human genetic disorders, as well as finding promising new therapeutics for those disorders.

Table of Contents:
