Overview

This detailed volume explores classical and cutting-edge methods optimized and validated to analyze various aspects of iron metabolism, from in vitro to multi-organ level. Opening with a section on basic iron metabolism methods, the book continues with methods applicable to a variety of systems, ranging from bacteria to cultured mammalian cells and tissues, with a focus on cellular heme and iron-sulfur cluster species, as well as mitochondrial iron and its derivatives. 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.   Authoritative and practical, Iron Metabolism: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide for researchers seeking to help in demystifying and boosting iron metabolism-related research.
