Sommario/riassunto: The first volume in a new series dedicated to protein degradation, this book lays the foundations of targeted protein breakdown via the ubiquitin pathway.The outstanding importance of the ubiquitin pathway has been recognized with the 2004 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for Aaaron Chiechanover, Avram Hershko, and Irwin Rose. Aaron Ciechanover is one of the editors of this series,and Avram Hershko has contributed to the opening chapter of the present volume.Drawing on the the expertise of two Nobel prize winners, this handy reference compiles information on the initial steps of the ubiqui
