Protein Carbonylation: Principles, Analysis, and Biological Implications

Protein carbonylation has attracted the interest of a great number of laboratories since the pioneering studies at the Earl Stadtman’s lab at NIH started in early 1980s. Since then, detecting protein carbonyls in oxidative stress situations became a highly efficient tool to uncover biomarkers of oxidative damage in normal and altered cell physiology.

In this book, research groups from several areas of interest have contributed to update the knowledge regarding detection, analyses and identi...
