106,99 inkl. MwSt

This book provides an overview on the organization andfunction of the microtubule cytoskeleton, which is essential to many cellularprocesses and profoundly linked to a range of human diseases.Covering basic concepts as well as molecular details, the book discusses howmicrotubules are nucleated and organized into ordered arrays, at different cellcycle stages and in distinct cell types. In addition, the book highlights howdefects in the microtubule cytoskeleton are linked to diseases such asneurodevelopmental disorders.

The book is intended for students, graduates and moresenior researchers in cell and developmental biology as well as for medicaldoctors.

Jens Lüders, PhD, is leading the Microtubule organization group at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB), in Barcelona, Spain.
