Cholesterol Binding and Cholesterol Transport Proteins: Structure and Function in Health and Disease /

Knowledge of cholesterol and its interaction with protein molecules is of fundamental importance in both animal and human biology. This book contains 22 chapters, dealing in depth with structural and functional aspects of the currently known and extremely diverse unrelated families of cholesterol-bi...
