Eukaryotic Gene Expression

The recent surge of interest in recombinant DNA research is understandable considering that biologists from all disciplines, using recently developed molecular techniques, can now study with great precision the structure and regulation of specific genes. As a discipline, molecular biology is no longer a mere subspeciality of biology or biochemistry: it is the new biology. Current approaches to the outstanding problems in virtually all the traditional disci­ plines in biology are now being e...
