Abstract:
"This two-volume book is organized into 26 chapters and serves as a resource for any scientists investigating GPCRs, be it in academia or industry. The first volume provides in-depth information about the molecular pharmacology of this important target class and presents up-to-date material on GPCR structures and structure based drug design. The second volume includes information on the role of GPCRs in disease and novel approaches for studying this receptor family. Together, the two volumes thoroughly overviews GPCRs in terms of their structure, pharmacology, function, and role in disease states; and provides information on novel approaches to measure GPCR activity"-- Provided by publisher.
