Short description:

This new edition of Gene Control is the only textbook offering a complete account of gene control for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. The core objective of this edition is to educate students about the fundamental principles and mechanisms governing gene expression, regulation, and function.

Long description:

The new edition of Gene Control, for the first time, provides extensive coverage on prokaryotic gene regulation, which makes it the only textbook offering a complete and detailed account of gene control for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. The core objective of this edition is to educate students about the fundamental principles and mechanisms governing gene expression, regulation, and function. To reinforce these ideas, each chapter now includes discussion questions to promote critical thinking. There are also multiple choice questions and animations for students, and a large question bank and figure slides for instructors. The textbook also emphasizes the vital role of scientific experiments and evidence in shaping our current understanding of gene control and provides comprehensive coverage of essential gene expression techniques and methodologies throughout the book.

This extensively updated edition of the renowned textbook Gene Control will remain a valuable resource for students, instructors, researchers, and medical professionals exploring various aspects of gene control, ranging from the regulation of genes in infectious diseases to embryonic development across different organisms, from bacteria to humans.
