The second of two new volumes covering mitochondria, this volume presents methods that have been developed to assess the number and function of nuclear-encoded proteins in the mitochndrion. These diverse chapters focus on regulation of mitochondrial function and mitochondrial diseases, including a section emphasizing the mitochondrial defects associated with type-2 diabetes.The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for 40 years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently co

In October 1995, the 1st Colloquium on Mitochondria and Myopathies in Halle/Saale was organized in Halle/Saale by the editors of this focused issue. The meeting took up what might be called an East German tradition: from 1976 to 1990 Andreas Schmidt organized seven clinically orientated Colloquia on Myology in Jena, and from 1974 to 1990 a series of twelve Colloquia on Mitochondria focused on basic research aspects was arranged by Wolfgang Kunz in Magdeburg. At those meetings, East Germany was a mediator between East European, West European and American scientists. In continuation of t

Respected investigators from around the world critically review what is known about the role of mitochondrial inhibitors in cell death and the onset of neurodegeneration. These distinguished researchers-many pioneers in the field-detail the symptomology, origin, and chemistry of mitochondrial toxins, and discuss animal models of human diseases related to abnormal mitochondrial function. The emphasis on 3-NP and its ability to replicate the cellular, anatomical, and behavioral alterations seen in Huntington’s disease demonstrate that mitochondrial inhibitors play an important role in the

Mitochondrial DNA is one of the most explored genetic systems because of what it can tell us about the human past. This volume takes a unique perspective, presenting the disparate strands that must be tied together to exploit this system. From molecular biology to anthropology, statistics to ancient DNA, this first volume of three presents the global picture of human mitochondrial DNA variation. It takes a critical look at the field, flagging the problems, as well as the successes, and always placing the mitochondrial phylogeny centre stage.
