Receptor-Ligand Interactions

This is the final volume in a set of 3 books detailing practical methods for the investigation of biochemical receptors. This book deals with the performance and interpretation of receptor-ligand binding studies which are important in many areas of pharmacological and neurochemical research.

---

This is the last of a set of three books covering the practical aspects of receptor biochemistry, receptor-effector coupling, and neurotransmitter/hormone receptor-ligand interactions. It focuses on the preparation, performance and interpretation of receptor-ligand binding studies which are widely used in mainstream pharmacology, both in academic laboratories and the pharmaceutical industry. Binding studies are easy to perform,but difficult to perform well, hence guidance and practical tips are given throughout. The book contains valuable protocols, and is intended as a bench manual for researchers in pharmacology neuroscience, molecular biology and biochemistry.
