The Mobile Receptor Hypothesis

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the Mobile Receptor Hypothesis, this book delves into the dynamics of biological membranes and the lateral mobility of receptors, crucial for signal transduction. It covers various methodologies for measuring protein mobility, the factors influencing it, and the implications of receptor movement in hormonal responses and GTP-binding protein interactions. The text emphasizes the role of the cytoskeleton and discusses potential pharmacological applications, providing a comprehensive view of how receptor mobility affects cellular communication and function.
