Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

This volume provides a comprehensive set of protocols that can be used by any research lab to investigate diverse functional and structural properties of Single Stranded DNA Binding Proteins (SSBs) from eubacterial, archaeal, eukaryotic, mitochondrial and viral systems. Written in the highly successful  Methods in Molecular Biology  series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.   Authoritative and cutting-edge,  Single Stranded DNA Binding Proteins  aims to be a useful practical guide to researchers to help further their study in this field.
