Gene Structure and Transcription (In Focus Series)

Significant advances have been made in the study of gene structure and transcription since the publication of the first edition of this popular volume in 1988. The new edition updates all the sections where progress has been made and includes new figures and references. Substantial additions have especially been made to the sections on RNA processing and eukaryotic DNA-binding proteins - topics which have been the subject of intensive research in recent years. Like the first edition, this book will be invaluable to students in molecular biology, genetics, and biochemistry as it provides a succinct account of this important subject.
