The Plasma Proteins: Structure, Function, and Genetic Control, Second Edition, Volume III is an eight-chapter treatise that describes the plasma proteins in a systematic integrated manner. This book presents first the perspectives and global outlook at plasma proteins, followed by a series of chapters on the well-characterized major proteins, with particular emphasis on immunoglobulins. Other chapters are devoted to the integrated systems of plasma proteins, especially their structure, function, and genetic control. A chapter describes the plasma protein fractionation. The remaining chapters introduce the clinical relevance of the plasma proteins. This book will be of great value to biologists, geneticists, clinicians, and researchers.
