Klappentext zu „Ion Channel Localization “
Since the pioneering discoveries of Hodgkin, Huxley, and Katz, it has been clear that specific ion conductance pathways underlie electrical act- ity. Over the ensuing 50 years, there has been ever increasing, and occasi- ally explosive, changes in the scope of efforts to understand ion channel behavior. The introduction of patch clamp technology by Erwin Neher and Bert Sakmann about 20 years ago led to the realization of the great variety of novel ion channel species, and the subsequent revolution in cl- ing has revealed an even greater diversity of the underlying molecular entities. Today, advances in the study of ion channel structure and function c- tinue at a high pace, from angstrom resolution imaging of crystallized ch- nels to their genetic manipulations in animals. In this regard, the field is a balanced one that inquires not only what ion channel entities are there, or how they operate, but also where are these molecular electronic switches? However, this balance is not particularly well presented to the general sci- tific audience or to specialists in the field. There are plenty of wonderful and useful books and monographs, as well as conferences and meetings on v- tually every aspect of ion channel structure and function. However, we are unaware that the channel localization theme has been considered in a u- fied forum.

Pressezitat
"There is a nice balance of review and methodology, with an emphasis on methodological principles. The scope of the book provides a rich and comprehensive review of staid and state-of-the-art localization techniques and their rationales for use. This is a singular and needed addition to the field of ion channel physiology, cell biology and neurobiology"-Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal"...both timely and will be of considerable interest to researchers of ion channel function....This book represents a collection of 24 methods of ion channel localization written by leading specialists and divided into four main parts. The first part concentrates on the fluorescent and radioligand binding of channel or receptors with specific pharmacological agents or toxins....Thus, the second part of this book concentrates on the quantification and cellular or subcellular visualization of ion channel expression in oocytes and immortal cell lines using green fluorescent proteins (GFP)....The third section of Ion Channel Localization: Methods and Protocols utilizes the functional properties of the channels for localization....One of the major achievements of Ion Channel Localization: Methods and Protocols in gathering so many of today's technologies of channel visualization is the candid and detailed descriptions the authors have provided of the advantages, pitfalls and 'tricks of the trade' of the methods under discussion. Descriptions are such I am confident that many scientists will be tempted to have a go themselves." - Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology
