Summary |
"This Molecular Genetics volume is written in two parts. The first part gives a grounding in the nature of genes and how they are used in cells as a source of information for the production of proteins. The second part concentrates on the techniques used by today's researchers in the study of molecular genetics, and is illustrated with sample results, enabling the student to get a feel for the subject at a practical level."--BOOK JACKET |
