CHF 299,55 inkl. MwSt
The second volume continues to fill the gap in protein review and protocal literature while summarizing recent achievements in the understanding of the relationships between protein misfoldings, aggregation, and development of protein deposition disorders. The focus of Part B is the molecular basis of differential disorders.
