An understanding of cellular domains is essential to the study of all areas of cell biology and related disciplines. Cellular Domains serves as a comprehensive analysis of cellular domains. Each chapter of the book focuses on a different domain and is supported by figures defining the domains, and a concluding chapter compares the protein composition of each domain, highlighting differences and similarities. This book is constructed to be useful in the classroom, while also suitable as an authoritative resource for researchers.
