Presenting
state-of-the-art protocols to study gap junctions, this detailed book first
focuses on the use of methods and tools to investigate the different aspects of
connexin expression and gap junction regulation. The second part of the volume
describes several methods to probe gap junction functionality as such. Written
in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters
include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary
materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory
protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative
and practical, Gap Junction Protocols is intended for basic and applied
researchers in the area of biomedical and life sciences, both in academic and
industrial settings.
