Hsp90 in Cancer: Beyond the Usual Suspects, the latest volume in the Advances in Cancer Research series, focuses on the multifunctional molecular chaperone Hsp90 which regulat… Read more
- Focuses on the multifunctional molecular chaperone Hsp90 which regulates the post-translational stability and function of a broad repertoire of client proteins
- Highlights the rapidly evolving understanding of the fundamental roles of Hsp90 in cancer biology
- Discusses the lesser-known aspects of how Hsp90 and its related family members enable oncogenic transformation and malignant progression
The information in this volume will be of interest to a broad range of basic and translational scientists, not only in the relatively narrow field of protein folding/biochemistry, but in other areas of cancer biology and clinical oncology.
