,ABOUT THE AUTHORS
HARVEY LODISH is Professor of Biology and Professor of Biological Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy and a Founding Member of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. Dr. Lodish is also a member of the National
Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and was President (2004) of the American Society for
Cell Biology. He is well known for his work on cell-membrane physiology, particularly the biosynthesis of many cell-surface pro-
teins, and on the cloning and functional analysis of several cell-surface receptor proteins, such as the erythropoietin and TGF–β
receptors. His laboratory also studies long noncoding RNAs and microRNAs that regulate the development and function of
hematopoietic cells and adipocytes. Dr. Lodish teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in cell biology and biotechnology.

ARNOLD BERK holds the UCLA Presidential Chair in Molecular Cell Biology in the Department of Microbiology, Immunology,
and Molecular Genetics and is a member of the Molecular Biology Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Berk
is also a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is one of the discoverers of RNA splicing and of mechanisms
for gene control in viruses. His laboratory studies the molecular interactions that regulate transcription initiation in mammalian
cells, focusing in particular on adenovirus regulatory proteins. He teaches an advanced undergraduate course in cell biology of
the nucleus and a graduate course in biochemistry. Photo credit: Penny Jennings/UCLA Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry.
CHRIS A. KAISER is the Amgen Inc. Professor in the Department of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
He is also a former Department Head and former Provost. His laboratory uses genetic and cell biological methods to under-
stand how newly synthesized membrane and secretory proteins are folded and stored in the compartments of the secretory
pathway. Dr. Kaiser is recognized as a top undergraduate educator at MIT, where he has taught genetics to undergraduates for
many years. Photo credit: Chris Kaiser.
MONTY KRIEGER is the Whitehead Professor in the Department of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and
a Senior Associate Member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Dr. Krieger is also a member of the National Academy of
Sciences. For his innovative teaching of undergraduate biology and human physiology as well as graduate cell biology courses,
he has received numerous awards. His laboratory has made contributions to our understanding of membrane trafficking
through the Golgi apparatus and has cloned and characterized receptor proteins important for pathogen recognition and the
movement of cholesterol into and out of cells, including the HDL receptor. Photo credit: Monty Krieger.
ANTHONY BRETSCHER is Professor of Cell Biology at Cornell University and a member of the Weill Institute for Cell and
Molecular Biology. His laboratory is well known for identifying and characterizing new components of the actin cytoskeleton
and elucidating the biological functions of those components in relation to cell polarity and membrane traffic. For this work,
his laboratory exploits biochemical, genetic, and cell biological approaches in two model systems, vertebrate epithelial cells
and the budding yeast. Dr. Bretscher teaches cell biology to undergraduates at Cornell University. Photo credit: Anthony Bretscher.
HIDDE PLOEGH is Professor of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a member of the Whitehead Institute
for Biomedical Research. One of the world’s leading researchers in immune-system behavior, Dr. Ploegh studies the various
tactics that viruses employ to evade our immune responses and the ways our immune system distinguishes friend from foe.

ANGELIKA AMON is Professor of Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a member of the Koch Institute for
Integrative Cancer Research, and Investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. She is also a member of the National
Academy of Sciences. Her laboratory studies the molecular mechanisms that govern chromosome segregation during mitosis
and meiosis and the consequences—aneuploidy—when these mechanisms fail during normal cell proliferation and cancer
development. Dr. Amon teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in cell biology and genetics. Photo credit: Pamela DiFraia/
Koch Institute/MIT.
KELSEY C. MARTIN is Professor of Biological Chemistry and Psychiatry and interim Dean of the David Geffen School of Medi-
cine at the University of California, Los Angeles. She is the former Chair of the Biological Chemistry Department. Her laboratory
studies the ways in which experience changes connections between neurons in the brain to store long-term memories—a
process known as synaptic plasticity. She has made important contributions to elucidating the molecular and cell biological
mechanisms that underlie this process. Dr. Martin teaches basic principles of neuroscience to undergraduates, graduate
students, dental students, and medical students. Photo credit: Phuong Pham.

ABOUT THE COVER: Imaging of the intracellular organelles of a live
human HeLa cell shows the dramatic morphological changes that accompany
the process of cell division. The membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
is labeled green by a fluorescently tagged component of the translocon (GFP-
Sec61β) and chromatin is labeled red by a fluorescently tagged histone (H2B-
mRFP). Front: An interphase cell showing uncondensed chromatin filling the
nucleus, with the ER as a reticulum of cisternae surrounding the nucleus and
interconnected with lace-like tubules at the cell periphery. Back: Prior to cell
division the chromatin condenses to reveal the worm-like structure of individual
chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and the ER condenses into
an array of cisternae surrounding the condensed chromosomes. As cell division
proceeds the replicated chromosomes will segregate equally into two daughter
cells, nuclear envelopes will form in the daughter cells, and the ER will return to
its characteristic reticular organization. Cover photo: Dr. Tomas Kirchhausen &

Increased Clarity, Improved Pedagogy
As experienced teachers of both undergraduate and gradu-
ate students, we are always striving to improve student un-
derstanding. Being able to visualize a molecule in action
Immobilized can have a profound effect on a student’s grasp of the mo-
mouse lecular processes within a cell. With this in mind, we have
updated many of the molecular models for increased clarity
and added models where they can deepen student under-
standing. From the precise fit required for tRNA charging,
to the conservation of ribosome structure, to the dynamic
strength of tropomyosin and troponin in muscle contraction,
these figures communicate the complex details of molecu-

alone. In conjunction with these new models, their schematic
