MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
This book examines the role of key components in the exocytotic process, not only in neuronal and endocrine cells but in a variety of other relevant cell systems. So far, because of the large number of components involved, understanding of the molecular basis of exocytosis has remained the privilege of a relatively small group of specialists. The book collects up-to-date reviews from the forefront of this fascinating and rapidly evolving field.
Contents:
Exocytosis.- Regulation of SNARE Complex Assembly by Second Messengers.- Rab GTPases and Their Role in the Control of Exocytosis.- The Role of Synaptotagmin and Synaptotagmin-Like Protein (Slp) in Regulated Exocytosis.- The Synapsins and the Control of Neuroexocytosis.- Phospholipase D.- Lipid Rafts as Regulators of SNARE Activity and Exocytosis.- Mast Cells as a Model of Nonneuroendocrine Exocytosis.- Acrosomal Exocytosis.- Nonsecretory, Regulated Exocytosis.- Adaptation of the Secretory Machinery to Pathophysiological Conditions.
