Overview
Structural Biology of Membrane examines various methodsto assess membrane structure, so as to understand the bacterialmembrane dynamics. The book has been divided into sixdifferent sections explaining the entire biological membranesystematically. The first section is focused upon methods to assessmembrane structure and content followed by the secondsection discussing about bacterial membrane dynamics whichhighlights permeability of CO2 through membranes. Provides the reader with an insightinto the factors helping in regulating lysosomal membrane potential. Various effects oftumor membrane bound molecules on immune detection have also been discussed todraw reader’s attention towards the clinical and diagnostic applications of membranedynamics.
