ARF Family GTPases

From the reviews: "A journey into a deeper understanding of the diversity of cellular controls exerted by the ARF family. The writing is so clear and well developed ... it will allow newcomers in the area to dive into a dynamic area of molecular and cellular science. ... the reader is treated to a wealth of discussion and critique on how ARFs modulate processes such as membrane fusion, vesicular transport, cell migration and receptor activity. This is an outstanding text for everyone with an interest in cell biology." (M. Thompson, Cell Biochemistry and Function, Vol. 23 (4), 2005)
