This new edition of Whats Wrong With My Mouse? continues to provide the most thorough overview of mutant mouse technology and a readable introduction to the field of behavioural neuroscience as applied to behavioural phenotyping of transgenic and knockout mice.
This detailed volume explores perspectives and methods using cell-free expression (CFE) to enable next-generation synthetic biology applications. The first section focuses on tools for CFE systems, including a primer on DNA handling and reproducibility, as well as methods for ce…
Levels of gene control -- Structure of chromatin -- Role of chromatin structure in gene control -- The process of transcription -- Transcription factors and transcriptional control -- Post-transcriptional processes -- Post-transcriptional regulation -- Gene control and cellular …
"Gene Control offers an articulate, current description of how gene expression is controlled in eukaryotes, reviewing and summarizing the extensive primary literature into an easily accessible format. Gene Control will be of value to students in biological sciences, as well as t…
Once thought to be just a messenger that allows genetic information encoded in DNA to direct the formation of proteins, RNA (ribonucleic acid) is now known to be a highly versatile molecule that has multiple roles in cells. It can function as an enzyme, scaffold various subcellu…
