Our understanding of the molecular genetics of immunoglobulins has been enormously advanced by the application of recombinant DNA technology. This new volume in the popular series New Comprehensive Biochemistry contains eight chapters that draw together reviews summarising the research into immunoglobulins and the arrangement, rearrangement and expression of their gene structure. Molecular Genetics of Immunoglobulin will be of particular importance to those working in the areas of genetics and molecular biology, immunology, and cell biology.
New Comprehensive Biochemistry: Molecular genetics of immunoglobulin
Immunoglobin Genes is the first comprehensive book on the structure, function, and expression of the genes encoding antibodies in normal and neoplastic cells.
This is a timely book offering a succinct and coherent summary of the various lines of evidence in a confused and controversial field. This book treats the phenomenon of adaptive immunity from the view-point of molecular genetics.
New Comprehensive Biochemistry: Biochemistry of Lipids, Lipoproteins and Membranes. Editors: Dennis E. Vance and Jean E. Vance
The new edition continues its success with updated research on microRNAs in B cell development and immunity, new developments in understanding lymphoma biology, and therapeutic targeting of B cells for clinical application.
This comprehensive treatment of immunochemistry theory offers the kind of information essential to furthering the biotechnological development of advances in molecular and cellular immunology. More than just a review of...
The book contains color illustrations and charts; and the included CD-ROM contains dozens of video clips, animations, molecular structures, and high-resolution micrographs. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
The implications of these findings have been amply confirmed by recent studies of protein struc ture and molecular genetics; many of these studies are reviewed in the present volume.
Geneticists and biologists will find this book extremely useful.
It contains animations and videos with voiceover narration, as well as the figures from the text for presentation purposes.
