| Title: | Genes and signals. 1st ed |
| Abstract: | This book analyzes gene regulation. The first chapter describes mechanisms found in bacteria. The next two chapters discuss which of these is most highly exploited in higher organisms. A final chapter relates this molecular strategy to other enzymatic processes including those involving kinases, RNA splicing enzymes, proteases, and others. The content is written for anyone interested in how cells work and how regulatory systems evolve. The text is well illustrated and includes bibliographical references and an index. |
