About this book

The book focuses on the regulation of protein function and biological activity by the post-translational modification known as acetylation. Chapters detail a wide range of topics in protein acetylation dealing with pathways relevant to cellular homeostasis, gene expression, and DNA metabolism. 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.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Protein Acetylation: Methods and Protocols aims to be an extremely valuable resource to novices and experts alike whose research takes them in the direction of characterizing regulatory switches in protein acetylation events, and how they are manifested in significant ways in diverse mechanisms biological systems.
