About this book

This volume explores the latest methods used to study and define serpin molecular structure, basic protease inhibition, serpin targets, and the roles of serpin in biology and disease using animal models. The chapters in this book cover topics such as crystallography and phage display, peptide design, phospholipid binding, and thrombus formation to microbiome analysis and development. 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, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.


Cutting edge and authoritative, Serpins: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for researchers and scientists interested in learning more about this evolving field.
