Cell Cycle Control (Frontiers In Molecular Biology): 10 - Softcover

 
9780199634101: Cell Cycle Control (Frontiers In Molecular Biology): 10

Synopsis

What makes a cell begin the complicated process of cell division? How does it stop? What happens when things go wrong? The use of developing technologies has revealed the extraordinary degree to which cell cycle control mechanisms have been conserved through eukaryotic evolution. This is the first book to cover the cell cycle field in the wake of groundbreaking research from the past five years. A historical look at cell cycle findings places this new knowledge into perspective and demonstrates the universality of cell cycle control, from the evolutionary process to cancer research and mitotic regulation. Cell cycle research is the most exciting area in contemporary biology, and anyone either interested or involved in the cell cycle field will find this an invaluable study.

Product Description

What makes a cell begin the complicated process of cell division? How does it stop? What happens when things go wrong? The use of developing technologies has revealed the extraordinary degree to which cell cycle control mechanisms have been conserved through eukaryotic evolution. This book presents a detailed overview of current research in cell cycle control.

Review

the layout of the book is excellent ... The order of presentation is logical and well conceived with the happy result that there is previous little redundancy in the information provided. The contributions are detailed and well referenced. Illustrations are by and large, clear and unfussy. For these reasons it will be a valuable reference source in many labs and a good general introductory text to those entering the field of cell cycle research. (Steve Smerdon, National Institute for Medical Research, Heredity, 77)
