New edition of a classic molecular biology textbook from CSHL Press and Benjami...(terial through replication recombination...)

Date:12/19/2007

terial through replication, recombination, and repair. A comprehensive survey of transcription, splicing, and translation is offered in Part 3, and the regulation of these processes is discussed in Part 4. Finally, Part 5 presents standard techniques and model organisms commonly used in molecular biology studies.

Also new to the book are a series of color-coded boxes that describe key experiments, techniques, medical connections, and advanced concepts. These boxes help to support the narrative and to clarify key concepts throughout the book.

Web Animation icons are also placed throughout the text, and these direct students to the expanded companion Web site (http://www.aw-bc.com/watson). This Web site contains interactive tutorials, animations, critical-thinking exercises, and a glossary, which are designed to reinforce fundamental concepts and to help visualize complex concepts.

Supplementary instructor resources, including a CD-ROM and transparency acetates, are also available. The dual-platform CD-ROM contains high-resolution files of all art and tables from the book in JPEG and PowerPoint formats, as well as answers to the critical-thinking questions posed to students on the companion Web site. The transparencies feature approximately 300 four-color illustrations from the text as selected by the authors.
