Analysis of Genes and Genomes

This beautifully illustrated textbook provides a clear guide to the tools and techniques of genetic engineering, gene cloning and molecular biology. All aspects of genetic engineering in the post-genomic era are covered, beginning with the basics of DNA structure and DNA metabolism. Using an example-driven approach, the fundamentals of creating mutations in DNA, cloning in bacteria, yeast, plants and animals are all clearly presented. <p>Strong emphasis is placed on the latest, post genomic technologies including DNA macro and microarrays, genome-wide two hybrid analysis, proteomics and bioinformatics.</p> <ul> <li>A modern post-genome era introduction to key techniques used in genetic engineering.</li> <li>An example driven past-to-present approach to allow the experiments of today to be placed in an historical context</li> <li> <div>The book is beautifully illustrated in full-colour throughout.</div> </li> <li> <div>Associated website including updates, additional content and illusions </div> </li> </ul>
