Description for DNA-Protein Interactions
Paperback. An exploration of the molecular interactions involved in the binding of proteins to DNA and the manipulation of DNA by proteins in such processes as recombination, transcription and topomerization. The structural and mechanistic bases of these phenomena in bacteria and higher organisms is stressed. Num Pages: 192 pages, 3 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSD; PSF; PSV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 10. Weight in Grams: 610.
Our understanding of the mechanisms regulating gene expression, which determine the patterns of growth and development in all living organisms, ultimately involves the elucidation of the detailed and dy namic interactions of proteins with nucleic acids -both DNA and RNA. Until recently the commonly presented view of the DNA double helix as visualized on the covers of many textbooks and journals - was as a monotonous static straight rod incapable in its own right of directing the processes necessary for the conservation and selective reading of genetic information. This view, although perhaps extreme, was reinforced by the necessary linearity of ... Read more

Reviews for DNA-Protein Interactions
The value of this analysis is found in the insight it provides into the mechanism of complex systems.... the text is generally well-written and flows smoothly. [this work] is full of insights and stimulating in its unification of structure and function, a perspective that is increasingly inmportant in molecular biology. Trends ... Read more
