This book is divided into three sections. Section A focuses on the plasma protein genes that includes the location of genes on the chromosome, pathology and variance of several genes, and gene expression. The proteins of the nucleus and detection of antibodies, such as antinuclear antibodies (ANA), to nuclear constituents are deliberated in Section B. Section C is devoted to the technical advances in the field of protein chemistry.
This book is a good reference for students, researchers, and medical practitioners conducting work on the protides of biological fluids.
