Branched Chain Amino Acids Summary

Branched Chain Amino Acids: Volume 166 by Editor-in-chief John N. Abelson (California Institute of Technology, Division of Biology, Pasadena, U.S.A.)

This volume includes chapters on the newest techniques for measuring metabolites of branched-chain amino acids, many new enzyme assays such as the measurement of isozymes of acetohydroxacid synthase, and the purification of recently described enzymes such as isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase.

Branched Chain Amino Acids Reviews

Praise for the Series The Methods in Enzymology series represents the gold-standard. --NEUROSCIENCE Incomparably useful. --ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY It is a true 'methods' series, including almost every detail from basic theory to sources of equipment and reagents, with timely documentation provided on each page. --BIO/TECHNOLOGY The series has been following the growing, changing and creation of new areas of science. It should be on the shelves of all libraries in the world as a whole collection. --CHEMISTRY IN INDUSTRY The appearance of another volume in that excellent series, Methods in Enzymology, is always a cause for appreciation for those who wish to successfully carry out a particular technique or prepare an enzyme or metabolic intermediate without the tiresome prospect of searching through unfamiliar literature and perhaps selecting an unproven method which is not easily reproduced. --AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MICROBIOLOGY NEWS If we had some way to find the work most often consulted in the laboratory, it could well be the multi-volume series Methods in Enzymology...a great work. --ENZYMOLOGIA A series that has established itself as a definitive reference for biochemists. --JOURNAL OF CHROMATOGRAPHY
