内容説明
The purpose of this book is to account for the structure and function of genes in terms of extensive knowledge about both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It explains what a gene is, how it is reproduced and what controls its expression. This new edition has completely new chapters on protein trafficking and eukaryotic gene transcription. It has a new introduction to the subject, making the book more approachable to less advanced students. Chapters on bacterial transcriptions, post-transcriptional control, interrupted gene structure, RNA splicing, transposons in bacteria, transposable elements in eukaryotes, gene expression in development, and the role of oncogenes in carcinogenesis have been completely rewritten.
目次
- Introduction: Cells as macromolecular assemblies: cells obey the laws of physics and chemistry
- cells are organized into compartments. Part 1 DNA as a store of information: genes are mutable units
- DNA is the genetic material
- the topology of nucleic acids
- isolating the gene. Part 2 Translation - expressing genes as proteins: the assembly line for protein synthesis
- transfer RNA - the translational adaptor
- the ribosome translation factory
- the messenger RNA template
- the apparatus for protein localization. Part 3 Transcription - control of prokaryotic genes: control at initiation - RNA polymerase-promoter interactions
- a panoply of operons - the lactose paradigm and others
- posttranscriptional feedback and control
- control at termination - attenuation and antitermination
- lytic cascades and lysogenic repression. Part 4 Perpetuation of DNA: the replicon - unit of replication
- the apparatus for DNA replication
- systems that safeguard DNA. Part 5 The packaging of DNA: about genomes and chromosomes
- organization of nucleosomes in chromatin
- the nature of active chromatin. Part 6 Constitution of the eukaryotic genome: the extraordinary power of DNA technology
- a continuum of sequences includes structural genes
- the organization of interrupted genes
- structural genes evolve in families
- genomes sequestered in organelles
- organization of simple sequence DNA. Part 7 Reaching maturity - eukaryotic RNA synthesis and processing: building the transcription complex
- mechanisms of RNA splicing
- control of RNA processing. Part 8 The dynamic genome - DNA in flux: recombination and other topological manipulations
- transposons that mobilize via DNA
- retroviruses and retroposons
- engineering changes in the genome. Part 9 Genes in development: generation of immune diversity involves reorganization of the genome
- changing gene organization from within and without
- gene regulation in development - cascades and gradients
- oncogenes - aberrant gene expression and cancer. Epilogue: landmark shifts in perspectives.
