Overview: Newly revised and updated, the Fourth Edition of Molecular Biology: Genes to Proteins is a comprehensive guide through the basic molecular processes and genetic phenomena of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Written for the undergraduate and first year graduate students within molecular biology or molecular genetics, the text has been updated with the latest data in the field. It incorporates a biochemical approach as well as a discovery approach that provides historical and experimental information within the context of the narrative. Reorganized to allow instructors to build on critical concepts throughout the course. Updated content on replication, transcription, and translation. A new chapter describing small silencing RNAs. New section added to examine RNA structure in greater detail. Includes a new section describing the ubiquitin proteasome proteolytic pathway. The section on DNA sequence has been updated to include the new generation of DNA sequencers. New sections have been added that examine epigenetic programming, which includes a discussion of imprinting and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.
