Molecular Biology of the Cell 5E

Product Information

The Genome Sequences of Two Species Differ in Proportion to the Length of Time That They Have Separately Evolved Combinations of Start-Transfer and Stop-Transfer Signals Determine the Topology of Multipass Transmembrane Proteins Ideal for libraries, laboratories, and researchers, this Reference Edition of Molecular Biology of the Cell, Fifth Edition offers an alternative to the student version by providing the complete text of Chapters 1-25 in printed format.*

Comparisons Between the DNAs of Related Organisms Distinguish Conserved and Nonconserved Regions of DNA Sequence Northern and Southern Blotting Facilitate Hybridization with Electrophoretically Separated Nucleic Acid Molecules Regulatory Proteins Control the Activity of GTP-Binding Proteins by Determining Whether GTP or GDP Is Bound The RecA Protein and its Homologs Enable a DNA Single Strand to Pair with a Homologous Region of DNA Double Helix Phospholipid Exchange Proteins Help to Transport Phospholipids from the ER to Mitochondria and PeroxisomesThree Classes of Segmentation Genes Refine the Anterior- Posterior Maternal Pattern and Subdivide the Embryo The Size and Subunit Composition of a Protein Can Be Determined by SDS Polyacrylamide-Gel Electrophoresis Mammalian cells proliferating in culture. The cells in this scanning electron micrograph are rat fibroblasts. (Courtesy of Guenter Albrecht-Buehler.) Homeotic Selector Genes Code for DNA-Binding Proteins That Interact with Other Gene Regulatory Proteins Proteins That Bind to the 5′ and 3′ Untranslated Regions of mRNAs Mediate Negative Translational Control

Two Proteins That Repress Each Other's Synthesis Determine the Heritable State of Bacteriophage Lambda Although the chapters of the Bruce Albert’s Molecular Biology of The Cell book PDF 6th Edition can be read independently of one another, they are arranged in a logical sequence of five parts. Ca 2+/Calmodulin-dependent Protein Kinases (CaM-Kinases) Mediate Many of the Actions of Ca 2+ in Animal Cells

chapter 11 Membrane Transport of Small Molecules and the Electrical Properties of Membranes / Bruce Alberts -- Lateral Inhibition and Asymmetric Division Combine to Regulate Genesis of Neurons Throughout the Body Hedgehog Proteins Act Through a Receptor Complex of Patched and Smoothened, Which Oppose Each Other Dpp and Sog Set Up a Secondary Morphogen Gradient to Refine the Pattern of the Dorsal Part of the Embryo The Topological Relationships of Membrane-enclosed Organelles Can Be Interpreted in Terms of Their Evolutionary Origins

Sexual Reproduction Gives a Competitive Advantage to Organisms in an Unpredictably Variable Environment Three Molecules of ATP and Two Molecules of NADPH Are Consumed for Each CO 2 Molecule That Is FixedThe Positioning of Nucleosomes on DNA Is Determined by Both DNA Flexibility and Other DNA-bound Proteins Anchoring Junctions Connect the Cytoskeleton of a Cell Either to the Cytoskeleton of Its Neighbors or to the Extracellular Matrix

An Egg Is Highly Specialized for Independent Development, with Large Nutrient Reserves and an Elaborate Coat Initial Patterns Are Established in Small Fields of Cells and Refined by Sequential Induction as the Embryo Grows In Most Transmembrane Proteins the Polypeptide Chain Crosses the Lipid Bilayer in an α-Helical Conformation Authors: Bruce Albert, Alexander Johnson, Julian Lewis, David Morgan, Martin Raff, Keith Roberts, Peter WalterMolecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition: The Problems Book by John Wilson and Tim Hunt The Problems Book is designed to help students appreciate the ways in which experiments and simple calculations can lead to an understanding of how cells work. It provides problems to accompany Chapters 1–20 of Molecular Biology of the Cell. Each chapter of problems is divided into sections that correspond to those of the main textbook and review key terms, test for understanding basic concepts, pose research-based problems, and now include MCAT-style questions which help students to prepare for standardized medical school admission tests. Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition: The Problems Book should be useful for homework assignments and as a basis for class discussion. It could even provide ideas for exam questions. Solutions for all of the problems are provided in the book. Solutions for the end-of-chapter problems for Chapters 1–24 in the main textbook are also found in The Problems Book Oocyte growth and egg cleavage in Xenopus. The oocyte grows without dividing for many months in the ovary of the mother frog and finally matures into an egg. Upon fertilization, the egg cleaves very rapidly—initially at a rate of one division (more...)
