This volume reviews virtually everything that is known about cell motility and behavior in Chlamydomonas. World experts in each area focus on mitosis and cytokinesis; flagellar assembly and motility; intraflagellar transport, and more will use this reference as a guide for understanding human diseases of the cilium. The volume is richly illustrated and is supplemented by a Website containing both classic and previously unpublished videos of cell motility in Chlamydomonas. Because Chlamydomonas has been the premier model for investigating the function and behavior of cilia and flagella, the chapters summarize the current state of knowledge in these areas as it applies to all ciliated organisms. Thus, this volume will be an essential source for all students and researchers interested in cell motility.

This volume is part of a 3-Volume Set (ISBN: 978-0-12-370873-1) and is also sold individually.

Reviews for The Chlamydomonas Sourcebook: Cell Motility and Behavior: Volume 3

This collection of pieces, originally published in the New Yorker, aims to explain various aspects of contemporary Britain to American readers. Topics include the Lloyd's insurance disaster, the rise and fall of Margaret Thatcher, the Channel Tunnel, and the recent royal troubles. Stylishly written, solid journalism about Britain in the 1990s, in which Barnes's dry wit and irreverence shines through. 1857974050 (Kirkus UK)
