Description
Virology has been transformed in recent years by the availability of an expanding range of techniques for molecular analysis. Many methods originally designed for a specific study are widely applicable to other viruses, and some, particularly those employing viruses as vectors for expression of foreign genes, to fields outside virology. This volume describes in detail those powerful new techniques and their application. It includes chapters on positive strand plant viruses, influenza viruses and paramyxoviruses, and immunodeficiency viruses. It also covers the analysis of viral DNA replication, and the construction of vectors from retroviruses, poliovirus, baculovirus, vaccinia virus, and herpes simplex virus, which are of major use in molecular biology in general. Molecular Virology: A Practical Approach is a comprehensive practical manual which describes all the key molecular techniques in viral analysis. These methods are of major interest not only to virologists but to all researchers using viruses as tools for understanding other biological systems.
