Oxford University Press; 2006; 608стр.; ISBN: 0195307623 From Library Journal A source for identifying specialized terminology is essential to keeping up with any growing field of research. This dictionary admirably satisfies that need, drawing from genetics and other related disciplines. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Review "It defines terms of the post-genomic era and includes not only strictly genetic terms, but also genetics-related words encountered in the scientific literature." --Quarterly Review of Biology"The latest edition of A Dictionary of Genetics is a fantastic reference and very useful to me. It is by far the most scholarly dictionary I have had the pleasure of using that strongly interfaces with evolutionary biology."-- Bruce G. Baldwin, Curator of the Jepson Herbarium, Integrative Biology, University of California at Berkeley."King, Stansfield and Mulligan defeat the notion of a dull dictionary. If you look up a definition you get carried away and find dozens of other things that you want to read about. It is equally useful and stimulating for young students and old timers working in the field."--Walter J. Gehring, Division of Cell Biology, University of Basel"This latest edition is a welcome update of the most useful and reliable reference work in the area."--Joseph G. Gall, Department of Embryology, Carnegie Institution of Washington"There are many new terms, modifications of some previous definitions, plus very worthwhile expansions of the previous appendices. The authors' meticulous editing and succinct writing provides a well organized global coverage of genetics, cellular, developmental, molecular, and evolutionary biology."--Ellen Rasch, J. M. Quillen College of Medicine, East Tennessee State University"A Dictionary of Genetics is a fascinating collection. Its remarkable breadth of coverage ensures that a simple flip through the pages will be educational, yet the information is detailed enough to make the book a valuable reference for the specialist. The chronology of biological discoveries provides a true sense of the excitement and rapid pace of progress in modern biology."--Paul Lasko, Department of Biology, McGill University"This is the most useful book on my genetics bookshelf! King, Stansfield, and Mulligan have updated the outstanding 6th edition to produce an amazing 7th edition. I recommend this well-organized and easy to read reference to students and faculty alike."--Susanne M.

Springer-Verlag; 2006; 300стр.; ISBN: 1852339616 Book Description Recent advances in genetics and brain biochemistry point to the Abeta peptide as the major culprit in causing neurodegeneration in Alzheimers Disease (AD). Abeta Peptide and Alzheimers Disease is specifically targeted at summarizing current knowledge of the Abeta peptide and its role in AD. Written by leaders in the industrial and academic world specializing in this rapidly moving area, the book covers fundamental biochemical studies on this peptide, the genetic impact on Abeta expression and processing, and various AD therapeutic strategies that target Abeta. Although specifically focusing on the Abeta peptide and AD, there is also some discussion on the similarity and differences of this peptide and AD with other amyloidogenic diseases, such as prion disease, Parkinsons and Huntingtons. This book will primarily be of interest to AD researchers and clinicians but also to researchers of other amyloid diseases. Reilly P.R.

The author also makes brave efforts to articulate ethical and legal, though not faith-based, issues that have arisen over many lines of research, frequently referring to the ethical imperatives laid out in the groundbreaking Belmont Report. A well-chosen, if thin, assortment of black-and-white photos and graphics illustrates the books.

(Progress in Molecular and Subcellular Biology) Ред. Jeanteur P. Springer-Verlag; 2006; 257стр.; ISBN: 3540344489 Book Description Splicing of primary RNA transcript, i.e. removal of introns and joining of exons to produce mature mRNAs competent for translation into proteins, is a quasi-systematic step of gene expression in higher organisms. However, this process is not unequivocal but can follow alternate pathways. Alternative splicing of a given transcript can therefore yield several distinct mRNAs encoding as many different proteins. Its full biological significance has not been appreciated until it was recognized that alternative splicing is so general as to affect about 75% of all human genes. Therefore, alternative splicing not only vastly increases protein diversity but also offers numerous opportunities for aberrant splicing events with pathological consequences.

Torrence P.F. John Wiley & Sons; 2005; 420стр.; ISBN: 0471668273 Book Description Antiviral Drug Discovery gives readers a cutting-edge view of how chemical concepts are being mobilized to develop novel approaches that will effectively confront emerging diseases and biowarfare. Among the many topics discussed are smallpox, the Ebola virus, influenza, SARS, arenaviruses and flaviviruses. Each chapter discusses hypothetical strategies for the discovery of relevant antiviral agents, recent findings related to biochemistry or drug discovery, and advances in the further development of established leads in the area. Timely and informative, this book clearly delineates the efforts being made to develop new and effective broad-spectrum antiviral agents. From the Back Cover Promising drug discovery efforts in the race to cure emerging diseases and thwart bioterrorism It was not too long ago that scientists believed that the discovery of powerful antimicrobial agents and vaccines would lead to the eradication of viral diseases. A warning, however, of the looming threat of viral diseases on U.S. national security was sounded in the 2000 National Intelligence Estimate, The Global Infectious Disease Threat and Its Implications for the United States. This report predicted that infectious diseases would endanger U.S. citizens at home and abroad, threaten U.S. forces deployed overseas, and exacerbate social and political instability. In the post-9/11 world, we can clearly see the gravity of those predictions, which greatly underscore the need for this timely publication. This is the first book that tackles head-on the myriad viral threats for which no effective drug treatments currently exist. Among the threats covered are potential bioterrorism agents and emerging viruses such as smallpox, influenza, Ebola, Marburg, SARS, Nipah, Hendra, Lassa fever, Junin, dengue, West Nile, and yellow fever. The editor of this publication has assembled an international team of leading experts, giving readers a cutting-edge view on current drug discovery efforts to find novel antiviral agents in the battle to combat these diseases and threats. Following a general introduction to the problems of emerging diseases and bioterrorism, each chapter discusses potential strategies for the discovery of antiviral agents, reveals recent findings, and points to promising directions for further research. Many of the contributors have honed their knowledge and offer unique insights based on their work with powerful viruses such as herpes and HIV. A variety of different strategies and targets are discussed in the ongoing exploration for effective treatment modalities. Specific targets of the virus's genomes and proteomes are presented as sources for antiviral agent prospectors. These include interferon evasion proteins, proteases, helicases, RNA polymerases, and methyl transferases. In addition, other targets presented are s-adenosylhomocystein hydrolase (SAH) and inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH). Generic approaches discussed include lethal mutagenesis, immunocamouflage, and prenylation inhibitors. Prodrugs and acyclic nucleoside monophosphates are among the antiviral countermeasures presented from the medicinal/bioorganic chemical arsenal. With so much at stake, the need to collect promising antiviral drug discovery strategies in one volume and disseminate it to all researchers in the field has never been greater. This is urgent reading for all researchers in medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical chemistry, drug discovery, biochemistry, virology, microbiology, and public health. This publication can help them in their charge to protect the health of the world against the perilous threat of emerging infectious diseases and bioterrorism. See all Editorial Reviews |
