This completely revised edition explores novel discoveries in bacterial genomic research, with a focus on technical and computational improvements as well as methods used for bacterial pangenome analysis, which relies on microbiome studies and metagenomic data. Beginning with up-to-date sequencing methods, the book continues with sections covering methods for deep phylogenetic analysis, the role of metagenomic data in understanding the genomics of the many yet uncultured bacteria, progress in genome-to-phenome inference, as well as computational genomic tools. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include the type of practical detail necessary for reproducible results in the lab. Authoritative and up-to-date, Bacterial Pangenomics: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition serves as an ideal guide for both highly qualified investigators in bacterial genomics and for less experienced researchers, including students and teachers, who could use a reference for approaching genomic analysis and genome data.

This detailed book presents a technical overview and practical methodology of a variety of antibody array formats and technologies. As advantages and disadvantages of antibody array types are explored, the volume also delves into practical applications of antibody arrays pertaining to investigations of specific research topics and biological processes as well as guidance on the methods of processing, analysis, and storage of array data. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, 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, Antibody Arrays: Methods and Protocols aims to empower the reader with the information required to select the most appropriate array for their research application, with the technical knowledge touse and process the array, and with the knowledge to perform analysis that realizes the maximum benefit from the data generated.

This volume explores the techniques used to study human and animal pericytes. Chapters in this volume cover a range of topics such as pericyte dissociation from tissues, and analysis by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry; avian chimaeras to investigate the embryonic development of cell lineage; pericyte purification by fluorescence activated cell sorting and ensuing culture; tissue turnover and regeneration; and the dynamic study of pericyte involvement in cancer dissemination, in situ, and in culture. 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 practical, Pericytes: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource that helps researchers define the biologic identity, functions, and potentials ofa cell lineage of increasing interest and therapeutic significance.

This second edition provides new and updated methods on the principles underlying modern protein analysis, from statistical issues to gel-based and mass spectrometry-based applications. Chapters detail protein quantification as basis for realisation of quantitative studies, gel-based and mass spectrometry-based quantification techniques, TMT, IPTL, PRM, MALDI Imaging, SILAC, PTM analysis, DIA, cross-linking, and the up-to-date topics of software and data analysis. 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, Quantitative Methods in Proteomics, Second Edition aims to provide comprehensive and competent overview in the important and still growing field of quantitative proteomics.
