Description and Table of Contents

Description

The chemistry of metals is providing new insights into DNA chemistry, making it necessary for scientists in this emerging interdisciplinary research to be able to understand work in both fields. This new volume provides an examination of the application of metal chemistry to molecular biology, as well as a review of recent research results. Its 11 chapters provide broad coverage of such topics as the development and use of metal complexes as tools in molecular biology, the involvement of metal ions in genetic regulation, and the importance of metal-based drugs in the treatment of cancer.
