Caspases, paracaspases, and metacaspases : methods and protocols / edited by Peter Bozhkov, Guy Salvesen.

Caspases, Paracaspases, and Metacaspacses: Methods and Protocols is a collection of laboratory protocols covering current methods that are employed to measure and detect activities of these proteases in diverse biological systems, ranging from unicellular organisms to mammals. Broken into two parts,...
