This new volume of Methods in Cell Biology looks at methods for analyzing centrosomes and centrioles.

This volume takes a closer look how the cell organelles Golgi apparatus (also known as the Golgi complex or Golgi body), and centriole are structurally and functionally intertwined.

This book is meant to summarize our current knowledge of the structure, function and evolution of microtubule organizing centers, primarily centrosomes.

Advances in Centrosome Research and Application: 2011 Edition is a ScholarlyPaper™ that delivers timely, authoritative, and intensively focused information about Centrosome in a compact format.

The focus of this book is on centrioles — small organelles adjacent to the nucleus in all human and animal (eucaryotic) cells.

This book features a diversity of aspects on centrosome biology focused on the role of centrosomes in reproduction, cell and molecular biology of centrosomes, centrosome abnormalities in cancer, and centrosomes in various cell systems.

The book provides a comprehensive overview of classic and modern approaches of centrosome research, including new aspects of centrosome functions focusing on primary cilia and their implications in numerous diseases.
