Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition

Continuing its tradition of excellence in cell biology education, the Sixth Edition of Molecular Biology of the Cell will be published in late 2014.

As the amount of information in biology expands exponentially, it becomes increasingly important for textbooks to distill the vast amount of scientific knowledge into concise principles and enduring concepts. As with previous editions, MBoC6 accomplishes this goal with clear writing and beautiful illustrations. The Sixth Edition has been extensively revised and updated with the latest research in the field of cell biology, and it provides an exceptional framework for teaching and learning.

The entire illustration program has been greatly enhanced. Protein structures better illustrate structure-function relationships, icons are simpler and more consistent within and between chapters, and micrographs have been refreshed and updated with newer, clearer, or better images. As a new feature, each chapter now contains intriguing open-ended questions highlighting “what we don’t know,” introducing students to challenging areas of future research. Updated end-of-chapter problems reflect new research discussed in the text. New questions on developmental biology, tissues and stem cells, the immune system, and pathogens are added to the final four chapters.

Some major changes include:

• Describes powerful new methods that scientists use to analyze genes and proteins, and to better visualize subcellular structures.• Explains new functions discovered for RNA molecules. • Includes the latest findings on the structure and function of the human genome.• Emphasizes the need for mathematics to unravel the complexities of cell function, with a section added to Chapter 8: Analyzing Cells, Molecules, and Systems that is echoed throughout the book.• Explains new insights on how low-complexity protein sequences help to organize the interior of cells.• Focuses on the fundamental concepts in cellular signaling, with emphasis on key principles underlying the circuitry of signaling systems.• Covers new insights into the causes, genetics, and treatments of cancer—including a discussion of personalized therapy—in a completely reorganized Chapter 20: Cancer.• Adds new sections on timing, growth control, and morphogenesis to Chapter 21: Animal Development.• Features an extensively revised and expanded treatment of stem cell molecular biology and technology—including cloning, nuclear reprogramming, ES cells, and iPS cells.

Cell Signaling

Cell Signaling presents the principles and components that underlie all known signaling mecha-nisms. The book provides undergraduate and graduate biology students with the tools needed to make sense of the array of specific pathways used by the cell to communicate. As each concept is explained, numerous examples derived from known signaling mechanisms are used to illustrate the key points. It describes basic signaling mechanisms such as protein interactions, changes in enzyme activity, post-translational modifications, subcellular localization of signaling molecules, and small diffusible signaling mediators. The book also explores the components of signaling pathways and how they are "wired" into pathways and circuits that can process information. The book concludes with a unique chapter that presents extended examples in which specific problems encountered in signaling are introduced and solved, followed by a chapter on methods.

One Health: People, Animals and the EnvironmentEdited by Ronald M. Atlas, University of Louisville, USA, and Stanley Maloy, San Diego State University, USA

The One Health initiative was born of the perception that veterinarians working on diseases of animals, plant pathologists working on diseases of plants, and microbiologists and infectious diseases professionals working on emerging diseases and outbreaks in humans were often working on similar problems or only part of the larger picture. If humans are to be healthy, they must live in a healthy environment. This book presents the concepts of the One Health Initiative to a wide audience of scientists, professionals, and the general public. Written by scientists working in the field, this book will provide a series of "stories" about how disruption of the environment and transmission from animal hosts is responsible for emerging human and animal diseases.

The Immune System, Fourth Edition

The Immune System, Fourth Edition, emphasizes the human immune system and synthesizes immunological concepts into a coherent, up-to-date, and reader-friendly account of how the immune system works. Written for undergraduate, medical, veterinary, dental, and pharmacy students, it makes generous use of medical examples to illustrate immunological concepts. The Fourth Edition has been extensively revised and updated. Innate immunity has undergone major revision to reflect this expanding and fast-moving field, and is now divided between two chapters. Chapters 4-9 have been updated and material has been consolidated to eliminate repetition. Mucosal immunology has exploded as a field since the Third Edition was published, thus its coverage in Chapter 10 has been significantly expanded and updated. Immunological memory and the secondary immune response now comprise the first part of Chapter 11. “Bridging Innate and Adaptive Immunity” will also have its own chapter, and the clinical chapters will be revised and updated with new immunotherapies. The Fourth Edition will be accompanied by an updated and greatly expanded question bank.
