Polyamines: Regulation and Molecular Interaction (Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit)

This book addresses the field of polyamines with an emphasis on the regulation of polyamine metabolism at the molecular level and other molecular interactions in which these naturally occurring polycations are involved. Additionally, this volume provides an overview of several new compounds which have recently been synthesized and are particularly useful for studying the molecular interactions. Finally, this book includes a discussion of the targeting of the polyamine metabolic pathway as a means for chemoprevention of neoplasia.
