This book places molecular genetics within the general framework of metabolism. In this way, the processes and mechanisms of gene function and control are seen as phenomena connected to other cell activities. Theoretical considerations and experimental data are kept to a minimum. Salient Features Emphasis on gene function and control facilitates better understanding of the applications of concepts in the important big picture of cell function. Extensive pedagogy includes beginning-of-chapter statements, end-of-chapter summaries, review questions, suggested readings, boldface terms, and a glossary.
