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 new 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 common, easy to follow format. Taken together they compile everything you wanted to know about proteins but were too busy to look for. The G-Protein Linked Receptor FactsBook contains over 50 entries on all members of the seven-transmembrane family of cell surface receptors and their associated G-proteins and effectors, including * acetylcholine, * adrenaline, * dopamine, * glutamine, * 5-HT, * G-Proteins, * phospholipase, * adenylyl cyclase, Entries provide information on * protein structure, molecular weights and glyosylation sites, * distribution, * receptors, * pharmacology, * effector pathways, * amino acid sequence, including transmembrane regions, * PIR, SWISSPROT, and EMBL/GenBank accession numbers, * Gene structure and organization, * Key referencesWatson, Steve is the author of 'G-Protein Linked Receptor Factsbook' with ISBN 9780127384405 and ISBN 0127384405.
