Molecular Anatomy of Cellular Systems

Preface. Part I. Cellular Functions. Stress meets devel opment in p38 MAP kinase (T. Sudo, M. Maruyama, H. Osada). Molecular dis section of cytotoxic functions mediated by T cells (T. Kataoka, K. Nagai ). Molecular imaging of the cytoskeleton using GFP-actin fluorescence mi croscopy (Y. Yan, G. Marriott). Golgi-acting drugs: inducers and inhibi tors of Golgi dispersal as probes to analyze Golgi membrane dynamics (A. Takatsuki). Regulation of protein sorting and trafficking between the e ndoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus in yeast (A. Nakano). An un expected gift from fungicide metabolism studies: blasticidin S deaminase (BSD) from Aspergillus terreus (M. Kimura et al.). Is olation and analysis of genes from phytopathogenic fungi (T. Motoyama et al.). A novel type of Na+/H+ antiporter: its unique characteristics and function (S. Kosono, M. Kitada, T. Kudo) . Part II. Nuclear Functions. Genetic analysis of the g enes involved in mitosis in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe< /EM> (Y. Nakaseko, M. Yanagida). Intergenomic transcriptional interplays
