Tubular organic nanostructures offering precise control over inner and outer surface functionality represent attractive building blocks for the... -
Introduction: Regulatory processes, an emerging feature in intracellular membrane traffic
The subject of this volume is the molecular mechanism of the intracellular membrane trafficking, a central eukaryotic cell biological process. In the... -
Cofactor Regeneration at the Lab Scale
Progress made in lab-scale applications of various coenzyme regeneration systems over the last two decades has mainly focused on the applications of... -
Ferrocene–Peptide Bioconjugates
This chapter sketches an outline of ferrocene–peptide bioconjugates. A variety of ferrocene–peptide bioconjugates have been designed to induce... -
Catalytic Nickel–Iron–Sulfur Clusters: From Minerals to Enzymes
The geochemical theory of the origin of life proposes that primordial, pre-biotic reactions were carried out in a metal-sulfide-rich environment... -
Control of Cell Proliferation and Growth by Myc Proteins
Myc proteins act as signal transducers that alter cell proliferation in dependence on signals from the extracellular environment. In normal cells,... -
Carbene Complexes of Heme Proteins and Iron Porphyrin Models
The possible formation of carbene complexes of cytochromes P450 enzymes in various metabolisms of xenobiotics is first described. In view of these... -
The Retinoblastoma Gene Family in Cell Cycle Regulation and Suppression of Tumorigenesis
Since its discovery in 1986, as the first tumor suppressor gene, the retinoblastoma gene (Rb) has been extensively studied. Numerous biochemical and... -
