Chemistry and biology of serpins

Twenty-one papers from the April 1996 Symposium, the first to deal specifically with serine protease inhibitors. The volume is dedicated to the memory of Stuart Stone (1951-1996), whose work at the Friedrich-Miescher Institut in Basel, the University of Cambridge and Monash University in Melbourne helped establish the field. Contributors cover coagulation, neurobiology and cancer, fibrinolysis, development and reproduction, inflammation, and noninhibitor serpins.
