Download or read book The Protein Kinase Factsbook, Two-Volume Set written by Grahame Hardie and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1995-06-19 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 1: How do you keep track of basic information on the proteins you work with? Where do you find details of their physicochemical properties, amino acid sequences, gene organization? Are you tired of scanning review articles, primary papers and databases to locate that elusive fact? The Academic Press FactsBook series will satisfy scientists and clinical researchers suffering from information overload. Each volume provides a catalogue of the essential properties of families of molecules. Gene organization, amino acid sequences, physicochemical properties, and biological activity are presented using a common, easy to follow format. Taken together they compile everything you wanted to know about proteins but were too busy to look for. The Protein Kinase FactsBook: Protein - Tyrosine Kinases contains over 65 entries on members of the family from vertebrates, Drosophila, slime moulds and other organisms. Entries provide information on: * Subunit structure and isoforms * Genetics * Sequence database accession numbers * Domain structures * Amino acid sequences * Homologues in other species * Patterns of expression * Physiological substrates and specificity determinants * Assays * Enzyme activators and inhibitors * References Volume 2: How do you keep track of basic information on the proteins you work with?
