Publisher's Synopsis
The new series, "Methods in Molecular Genetics", should provide experimental procedures for use in the laboratory. Because the introduction of molecular genetic techniques and related methodology has revolutionized biological research, a wide range of methods will be covered. The power and applicability of these techniques have led to detailed molecular answers to important biological questions and have changed the emphasis of biological research, as well as medical research, from the isolation and characterization of cellular material to studies of genes and their protein products.;"Methods in Molecular Genetics" should be of value to researchers as well as students and technicians in a number of disciplines because of the wide applicability of the procedures and the topics that will be covered. The focus of this volume is on eukaryotic cells and, in particular, on human and other mammalian cells.
