Includes bibliographical references and index. Levels of gene control -- Structure of chromatin -- Role of chromatin structure in gene control -- The process of transcription -- Transcription factors and transcriptional control -- Post-transcriptional processes -- Post-transcriptional regulation -- Gene control and cellular signaling pathways -- Gene control in embryonic development -- Control of cell-type-specific gene expression -- Gene regulation and cancer -- Gene regulation and human disease -- Conclusions and future prospects. "Gene Control offers an articulate, current description of how gene expression is controlled in eukaryotes, reviewing and summarizing the extensive primary literature into an easily accessible format. Gene Control will be of value to students in biological sciences, as well as to scientists and clinicians interested in how genes are regulated in health and disease." "Gene Control is a comprehensively restructured and expanded edition of Latchman's Gene Regulation: A Eukaryotic Perspective, Fifth Edition. The first part of the book deals with the fundamental processes of gene control at the l |
