Summary

Summary

This newly revised edition features a collection of hands-on descriptions of established laboratory protocols on receptor-mediated cell signaling, with particular attention devoted to those receptors that are part of the G-protein-linked superfamily. It includes many new protocols and assays for general classes of signal transduction components that can be adapted to any member of that class. It offers those already working in the field as well as those in related areas the opportunity to expand their range of experimental techniques and to carry out successful investigations without needing to refer to any other methodological source.
