Alphaherpesviruses
Author: Sandra Knowles Weller
Publisher: Caister Academic Press Limited
ISBN: 9781904455769
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Alphaherpesviruses are a fascinating group of DNA viruses that includes important human pathogens such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), HSV-2, and varicella-zoster virus (VZV): the causative agents of cold sores, genital ulcerous disease, and chickenpox/shingles, respectively. A key attribute of these viruses is their ability to establish lifelong latent infection in the peripheral nervous system of the host. Such persistence requires subversion of the host's immune system and intrinsic antiviral defense mechanisms. Understanding the mechanisms of the immune evasion and what triggers viral reactivation is a major challenge for today's researchers. This has prompted enormous research efforts into understanding the molecular and cellular biology of these viruses. This up-to-date and comprehensive volume aims to distill the most important research in this area providing a timely overview of the field. Topics covered include: transcriptional regulation, DNA replication, translational control, virus entry and capsid assembly, the role of microRNAs in infection and oncolytic vectors for cancer therapy. In addition there is coverage of virus-host interactions, including apoptosis, subversion of host protein quality control and DNA damage response pathways, autophagy, establishment and reactivation from latency, interferon responses, immunity and vaccine development. Essential reading for everyone working with alphaherpesviruses and of interest to all virologists working on latent infections.

Laboratory Experiments in Chemistry
Author: Newton Henry Black
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780266361329
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Excerpt from Laboratory Experiments in Chemistry: To Accompany Black and Conant's Practical Chemistry This book has been arranged to accompany black and conant's New Practical Chemistry. The directions are framed primarily to meet the needs of students who are studying the subject for the first time. These experiments are the result of the author's long experience as a teacher of beginners in chemistry. Laboratory work in any science is fundamental, and the study of a textbook merely extends and organizes the information that the student gets in the laboratory. The experiments which the student does with his own hands Should make the fundamental principles of the science real and concrete to him. It is also essential for him to perform certain experiments which will indicate how these facts and principles are utilized at home and in the commercial and industrial life of the community. The directions are at first very full and detailed, but they are gradually abbreviated in order to leave more and more to the student's own initiative and imagination. It is hoped that they are so clearly stated and illustrated that the teacher will be largely freed from the necessity of repeating the details of manipulation. Frequent questions (in italics) have been inserted in the directions to focus the attention Of the student on the important facts to be observed. One of the aims of all laboratory work is to arouse the stu dent's enthusiasm for finding things out by experiment. To encourage this spirit, additional experiments, which are marked Optional, have been included. These may well be used to give elasticity and variety to the laboratory work as well as to emphasize the close connection between chemistry in the school laboratory and chemistry in the household, in the factory, or on the farm. The introductory paragraphs are intended to give the setting of the experiment and to indicate its significance. These may well be amplified by the teacher in the oral discussion preceding each experiment. It is expected that the instructor will select those experiments which meet the needs of his class. Probably an average class of beginners in chemistry can in one school year perform success fully not more than forty of these experiments. It is far better to have a small number carefully done, well written up, and thoroughly understood, than to rush through many carelessly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition.
