| Summary |
This volume provides a comprehensive guide on the Cyr61 (Cysteine-rich 61) (CCN) family of proteins and genes from basic research to cutting-edge methodologies and state-of-the-art techniques. Chapters details practical tips to overcome any obstacles with experimentation pertaining to chemistry, biology, physiology, pathology, medical and dental sciences and pharmacology of CCN proteins. 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. Authoritative and cutting-edge, CCN Proteins: Methods and Protocols will be a valuable resource for a wide audience, ranging from the experienced CCN researchers looking for new approaches to junior graduate students just beginning in CCN research |
