Ökophysik
By: Nachtigall, W.
Published by: Springer

Prof. em. Dr. rer. nat. Werner Nachtigall, geb. 1934, war als Zoophysiologe und Biophysiker Leiter des Zoologischen Instituts der UniversitC$t des Saarlandes in Saarbrucken. In Forschung und Ausbildung hat er sich insbesondere mit Aspekten der Technischen Biologie und Bionik befasst und mit seinen Forschergruppen viele Basisdaten insbesondere zur Okologie, Physiologie und Physik des Fliegens und Schwimmens aber auch zur StabilitC$t beispielsweise der GrC$ser erarbeitet. Lebewesen uberraschen immer wieder durch ihre "BiodiversitC$t," ihre hochspezifischen Ausgestaltungen und Anpassungen. Dabei nutzen sie auch alle physikalischen Grundgesetzlichkeiten. Das zentrale Thema ist die Ortsbewegung, die ja auf dem Boden und in den Fluiden (Wasser, Luft) denkbar unterschiedlich ablC$uft. ErgC$nzende Themenkreise sind KC6rpergrC6Ce und Stoffwechsel, Atmung und Atemgastransport, WC$rme- und Wasserhaushalt. Mit dem vorliegenden Buch, das in Zusammenarbeit mit Dr. rer. nat. Alfred Wisser entstanden ist, stellt er solche Forschungsergebnisse in einen grC6Ceren Rahmen und berichtet kenntnisreich und allgemein verstC$ndlich uber die bOkophysik" des Lebens auf dem Land, im Wasser und in der Luft b" mit Gewinn zu lesen von jedem, der sich fur Biologie oder fur Physik interessiert (oder gar fur beides). more...

Actin-binding Proteins and Disease
By: Remedios, Cristobal G.Dos (ed.); Chhabra, Deepak (ed.)
Published by: Springer

Actin is a ubiquitous protein present in high concentrations in virtually all cells. It's assembly and disassembly is modulated by more than 100 actin-binding proteins. These interactions are essential for a variety of important cellular processes including cell division, gene expression and motility. There are scattered reports in the published literature citing relationships between actin, actin-binding proteins and disease. This volume brings this information together for the first time, with a focus on human disorders. This volume is relevant to a wide readership including cell biologists interested in understanding how structural and functional changes in proteins impact on the organism as a whole. Additionally, clinicians will be interested because the book explains the role of cytoskeletal proteins in various diseases, including cancer and immune system disorders. more...

The ADAM Family of Proteases
By: Hooper, Nigel M. (ed.); Lendeckel, Uwe (ed.)
Published by: Springer

"The ADAM Family of Proteases" provides the first comprehensive review of the roles of ADAMs and the related ADAMTS proteases in biology and disease. Although a few members of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family have been known for some time, it is only in recent years through advances in genome sequencing that the large size of this family of zinc metalloproteases has become apparent. These proteins have multiple domains including a protease domain and a disintegrin domain. A branch of the family, called ADAMTS, also have thrombospondin-like motifs. The role of ADAMs and ADAMTS members in a diversity of biological processes is gradually coming to light. For example, some ADAMs have critical roles in the ectodomain shedding of membrane proteins including tumour necrosis factor-a, the cell signalling molecule Notch and the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein. Other ADAM and ADAMTS family members have key roles to play in sperm function and fertility, collagen processing, development, cardiac hypertrophy and arthritis. more...
