This detailed volume explores a variety of techniques for studying antiviral innate immunity and the type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling pathway. Beginning with guidelines to identify novel proteins from the host or viruses that regulate the antiviral IFN-I signaling pathway, the book continues with common and cutting-edge approaches for identifying novel regulatory factors, posttranslational modifications, as well as click chemistry to detect protein modifications. Other chapters delve into topics such as cytosolic RNA and DNA sensors, magnetic beads, cryo-electron microscopy, zebrafish, humanized mice, and organoids as model organisms to study host-virus interactions, and epidemiological approaches. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

English | November 30, 2022 | ISBN: 1487527217 | 400 pages | MOBI | 75 Mb
Innate Terrain addresses the varied perceptions of Canada’s natural terrain, framing the discussion in the context of landscapes designed by Canadian landscape architects. This edited collection draws on contemporary works to theorize a distinct approach practiced by Canadian landscape architects from across the country. The essays – authored by Canadian scholars and practitioners, some of whom are Indigenous or have worked closely with Indigenous communities – are united by the argument that Canadian landscape architecture is intrinsically linked to the innate qualities of the surrounding terrain. Beautifully illustrated, Innate Terrain aims to capture distinct regional qualities that are rooted in the broader context of the Canadian landscape.
