Description
Fundamentals of Molecular Biology meets the requirements of various bioscience-related areas such as microbiology, biochemistry, and genetic engineering.
The book focuses on explaining the basic concepts and techniques in molecular biology and their applications thereof. Starting with the definition and role of molecular biology in the study of biotechnology, the book provides complete coverage of topics such as micro- and macro-molecules, DNA enzymes, and the concept of genomes. It also provides an overview of recombinant DNA technology and its applications. The book provides comprehensive discussions on DNA replication, its damage, repair and recombination, transcription machinery in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, translation, and protein folding, modifications and degradations. It finally concludes with a detailed discussion on genomics and proteomics. Written in a lucid style, the book is aimed to help students assimilate complex theories with ease. Supplemented with a number of figures, colour illustrations, and end-chapter questions, the book is ideal for use in the classroom.
