Gene Structure and Transcription

Significant advances have been made in the study of gene structure and transcription since the publication of the first edition of this volume in 1988. This 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. This book should be of interest to undergraduate students taking courses in molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, and a range of related topics.
