Integrated Genomics: A Discovery-Based Laboratory Course introduces the excitement of discovery to the basic molecular biology laboratory. Utilizing up-to-date molecular biology protocols and a basic experimental design, this text offers experience with three different model systems. Students will become familiar with the simplicity and power of single-celled organisms, Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as they search for genes that interact and function within the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Incorporated throughout the course are exercises designed to offer students familiarity with the wealth of bioinformatics data that can be accessed on the World Wide Web. Following completion of interaction studies within the yeast, the course is designed to allow students to examine the functional consequences of reducing a gene’s function within the multicellular worm that is both simple and inexpensive to maintain within a laboratory. The inclusion of alternative experiments allow for flexibility in determining the ending date or goal of the laboratory, as well as working within the available budget and resources of most any classroom environment. Further striking features of this title are: An accompanying Web site providing PowerPoint slides, plus links to the internet, and regular updates as bioinformatics databases evolve and methods improve. www.wiley.com/go/caldwell Inclusion of modern genomic/proteomic technologies such as the yeast two-hybrid system and RNAi Detailed experimental protocols and easy access to instructional materials This discovery-based laboratory course provides excellent practical training for those pursuing career paths in biomedicine, pharmacy, and biotechnology.

The recent revolution in molecular genetics, which has already made such a significant impact in the biomedical sciences, is now becoming established in biological anthropology. New techniques have enabled anthropologists to study biological variation at the molecular level, and a wealth of exciting information on human and non-human primate populations is now becoming available for the first time. This volume presents a selection of pioneering research studies in which molecular techniques have been used to address key questions, for example about the human genetic system, the geographical movements of human populations in the past, and primate evolution. Providing not only a timely overview of current research, this book also presents an insight into the potential significance of molecular biology in the decades to come, that will be of interest to all biological anthropologists as well as molecular biologists, human geneticists, palaeontologists and evolutionary biologists.

In situ hybridization is a technique of molecular biology that is used to localize the genetic machinery involved in protein making. It is particularly important in the study of the mechanisms underlying cellular function and disease. This applications-oriented volume covers all aspects of in situ hybridization, from the basic principles of molecular biology, through many recent methodological advances, to the most up-to-date muses in medical pathology. With contributions by leaders in the field, this work will be a primary resource for all those using the technique. The book is spiral-bound for added convenience, and includes a number of color figures to illustrate the material presented in the text.

Product Description: In spite of tremendous scientific progress over the past years, cell biologists do not yet understand the fundamental processes that determine the life cy­ cle of a cell. Such are: cell movement and cell spreading, cell division, cell communication, cell signaling, cell regeneration and cell death...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)
