Fundamental Molecular Biology by Lizabeth A. AllisonUnique in in its focus on eukaryotic molecular biology, this textbook provides a distillation of the essential concepts of molecular biology, supported by current examples, experimental evidence, and boxes that address related diseases, methods, and techniques. End-of-chapter analytical questions are well designed and will enable students to apply the information they learned in the chapter. A supplementary website include self-tests for students, resources for instructors, as well as figures and animations for classroom use.

Essentials of Molecular Biology by George M. MalacinskiEssentials of Molecular Biology, Fourth Editionfocuses on the fundamental aspects of molecular structure and function by reviewing key features and along the way, capsulizing them as a series of concise concepts. Thus, students are encouraged to place the reductionist knowledge of molecular biology into broad contexts and thereby develop both academic and personal meaning for this discipline.Essentials of Molecular Biologyis organized into a series of modules that provides instructors with an opportunity to scale the treatment of various topics up or down, depending on the level of the students and the overall curriculum's format.Module Themes:- The Structure of Proteins, Nucleic Acids, and Macromolecular Complexes- Function of Macromolecules- Coordination of Macromolecular Function in Cells- Experimental Manipulation of Macromolecules

Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis by T. A. BrownKnown world-wide as the standard introductory text to this important and exciting area, the sixth edition of Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis addresses new and growing areas of research whilst retaining the philosophy of the previous editions. Assuming the reader has little prior knowledge of the subject, its importance, the principles of the techniques used and their applications are all carefully laid out, with over 250 clearly presented four-colour illustrations. In addition to a number of informative changes to the text throughout the book, the final four chapters have been significantly updated and extended to reflect the striking advances made in recent years in the applications of gene cloning and DNA analysis in biotechnology. Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis remains an essential introductory text to a wide range of biological sciences students; including genetics and genomics, molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology and applied biology. It is also a perfect introductory text for any professional needing to learn the basics of the subject. All libraries in universities where medical, life and biological sciences are studied and taught should have copies available on their shelves. " the book content is elegantly illustrated and well organized in clear-cut chapters and subsections there is a Further Reading section after each chapter that contains several key references What is extremely useful, almost every reference is furnished with the short but distinct author′s remark." Journal of Heredity, 2007 (on the previous edition)
