Redox signaling and regulation in biology and medicine

This advanced textbook integrates in an easily accessible manner the chemistry, biochemistry, cell biology and clinical implications of intracellular redox-processes, oxidative stress, and redox signaling and control pathways. For the first time, the widely scattered knowledge in the scientific literature is presented in a unified picture. All currently hot topics are addressed here: redox signaling, sulfinic acid switches, control of chaperone activity, transcription regulation, antioxidant response networks and apoptosis. 53 feature boxes explain key terms and concepts from chemistry, biology and medicine that arefrequently referred to in the text. In short, the book provides essential knowledge for students and junior researchers in biochemistry, molecular cell biology, and medicine.
