Lignins are nature's aromatic polymers and are the second most abundant organic constituent of the biosphere next to cellulose. Lignification mainly occurs in the walls of terrestrial vascular plants, mainly in the secondarily thickened cells of supportive or conductive tissues, which thus acquire novel properties. This new volume of Advances in Botanical Research gives a special emphasis to the bioengineering of these enigmatic polymers. It is divided in nine chapters containing up-to-date reviews by expert groups in their field. - Gives a special emphasis to the bioengineering of these enigmatic polymers, lignins - Divided in nine chapters - Contains up-to-date reviews by expert groups in their field
These two volumes contain a selection of updated articles from the acclaimed Meyers Encyclopedia of Molecular Cell Biology and Molecular Medicine, the most authoritative resource in cell and molecular biology, combined with new articles by "founding fathers" in the field. The work is divided into six sections: + Biological Basis + Modeling + Modular Parts and Circuits + Synthetic Genomes + Diseases and Therapeutics + Chemicals Production. Ideally suited as advanced reading for students and postdocs, and with all current research trends covered by an impressive number of leading figures in the field, this is the first choice reference for research institutions.
This timely overview of the syntheses for functional pi-systems focuses on target molecules that have shown interesting properties as materials or models in physics, biology and chemistry. The unique concept allows readers to select the right synthetic strategy for success, making it invaluable for a number of industrial applications. A "must have" for everyone working in this new and rapidly expanding field.

Fachlich auf höchstem Niveau, visuell überzeugend und durchgängig farbig illustriert: Das ist die neue Auflage der praxisbewährten Einführung in spezialisierte elektronische Materialien und Bauelemente aus der Informationstechnologie. Über ein Drittel des Inhalts ist neu, alle anderen Beiträge wurden gründlich überarbeitet und aktualisiert.
Cryo-electron microscopy, in combination with tomography, has emerged as a new technology for visualizing molecular structures at a resolution beyond even 1 Å. Using this technology has revealed the native molecular details of viruses, membranes, enzymes, ribosomes, and cells. This comprehensive volume brings together authoritative overviews of these methods from structural and biological perspectives. It is a must-have for researchers and graduate students, as well as those working in industry, primarily in the areas of biophysics, structural biology, crystallography, and genomics. Key Features • Focuses on the applications of cryo-EM to structural biology • Documents the importance of cryo-EM/ET approaches in studying the structural determinants of cellular organelle and membrane protein biochemistry • Reviews the applications of high-resolution structures of viruses • Emphasizes structural insights of nuclear and gene machineries • Includes a section focused entirely on the applications of cryo-EM/ET in drug discovery and therapeutic development
