Description
Protein-lipid interactions as a field of study is now a mature area, and this volume of New
Comprehensive Biochemistry has been published with two objectives in mind. Firstly, to look to the
future, and try to envisage how the subject may develop in the near to medium future. Secondly, to present
contrasting or complementary views on the same system. For example, the acetylcholine receptor is discussed
from a predominantly structural aspect by Barrantes, and from the kinetic standpoint by Rankin, et al.
The volume not only gives an update on specific aspects of the field, but also shows the way in which
the phenomenon of protein-lipid interactions is now seemingly infiltrating many areas of biomembrane
research, from recombinant DNA studies, protein insertion and assembly and reconstitution considerations
to structural studies of membrane proteins.
