Included in series
Advances in Enzyme Regulation, 43
Description
This volume contains papers of 23 outstanding scientists who are working at the leading edge of metabolic regulation studies. Much of
the volume focuses on novel aspects of signal transduction with emphasis on the role of phospholipase C in cell control mechanisms.
One of the highlights of this volume is always the Special Symposium Lecture. This lecture was given for fifteen years by Nobel
laureate, Sir Hans A. Krebs (UK) (now deceased). This year the Lecture was given by Nadir Maraldi, Director of the Laboratory of Cellular
Biology and Electron Microscopy, University of Bologna, Italy. Professor Maraldi's presentation is on the important and novel subject
of "Nuclear Proteins and Human Disease."
