International Review of Cytology: Volume 252

International Review of Cytology presents current advances and comprehensive reviews in cell biology - both plant and animal. Authored by some of the foremost scientists in the field, each volume provides up-to-date information and directions for future research. Articles in this volume address cell biology of membrane trafficking in human disease; the biology of the gaucher cell; intracellular signals and events activated by cytokines of the TNF superfamily; cellular and molecular biology of orphan G-protein coupled receptors; organization and function of the actin; cytoskeleton in developing root cells.

Autorentext
Kwang Jeon received his Ph.D. in cell physiology at King's College, University of London, UK, in 1964 and taught at SUNY Buffalo and University of Tennessee. His research was concerned with the biogenesis and function of cell components in two major areas: Integration of intracellular symbionts into host cells leading to the acquisition of new cell components and cell variation; Membrane-protein recycling during endo- and exocytosis.
