Описание: A clear and straightforward explanation of genetics in this new edition of the popular 101 series. Our genetic makeup determines so much about who we are, and what we pass on to our children--from eye color, to height, to health, and even our longevity. Genetics 101 breaks down the science of how genes are inherited and passed from parents to offspring, what DNA is and how it works, how your DNA affects your health, and how you can use your personal genomics to find out more about who you are and where you come from. Whether you're looking for a better scientific understanding of genetics, or looking into your own DNA, Genetics 101 is your go-to source to discover more about both yourself and your ancestry.

Описание: The central purpose of this combination lecture/laboratory manual is to present detailed protocols for the multi-step process involved in isolating a gene, cloning and characterizing it, expressing the encoded protein, purifying the protein, and characterizing rudimentary aspects of its basic physical properties. The manual includes 20 experiments designed to train students to prepare, manipulate, and analyzse plasmids, to produce fusion proteins in bacteria, and to purify these proteins based on unique chemical properties or substrate affinities. Electrophoresis, southern and western blotting and cominatorial techniques are empsized. Radioisotopes, fluorophores and solvent effects on protein structure are discussed. (No radioisotopes are required.) The experiments included have been selected because of their high success rate and because they emphasize a project-oriented approach. Sufficient detail and background are provided such that the intended audience includes advanced undergraduate students, beginning graduates, and practising professionals engaged in a broad range of pursuits. Each experiment is accompanied by detailed process rationale.

Описание: Gene cloning for the production of recombinant DNA is usually performed with E. coli. There is, however, no doubt that gene cloning in organisms other than E. coli will assume a much more important role in the future: efficient cloning systems are needed for the analysis of gene expression and its regulation in eukaryotic cells, for the elucidation ofthe genetic mechanisms of transform a- tion, and for the study of the genetic rearrangement during dif- ferentiation and embryogenesis. Furthermore, optimal cloning systems will be required for practical applications in the near future: for the optimal production of antibiotics, amino acids, vitamins, enzymes etc., for the expression of gene products under favorable energetic conditions for mass production, for the ex- pression of glycolysated animal proteins, for the genetic manipu- 'lation of plants -and in the more distant future, for gene therapy inman. The editors have therefore invited leading scientists to sum- marize the present status and the future applicability of gene cloning systems in their fields of research. To ensure a complete coverage of a genetic system, the editors have generally asked two authors to cover one system. This volume is a frrst and unique account of our knowledge of cloning systems employing organisms other than E. coli such as B. subtilis, pseudomonas, neurospora, saccharomyces and streptomyces, as well as of vectors and selection procedures for animal and plant systems including the liposome technique.

Описание: The advances made in molecular biology have allowed scientists to manipulate DNA. This means that molecular biology has become a tool for answering scientific questions that may be quite unrelated to genetics and cell biology. The techniques have become a means to an end, rather than an end in themselves. This work deals with this area.

Описание:
The natural world is marked by an ever-increasing loss of varied habitats, a growing number of species extinctions, and a full range of new kinds of dilemmas posed by global warming. At the same time, humans are also working to actively shape this natural world through contemporary bioscience and biotechnology. In Cloning Wild Life, Carrie Friese posits that cloned endangered animals in zoos sit at the apex of these two trends, as humans seek a scientific solution to environmental crisis. Often fraught with controversy, cloning technologies, Friese argues, significantly affect our conceptualizations of and engagements with wildlife and nature. By studying animals at different locations, Friese explores the human practices surrounding the cloning of endangered animals. She visits zoos—the San Diego Zoological Park, the Audubon Center in New Orleans, and the Zoological Society of London—to see cloning and related practices in action, as well as attending academic and medical conferences and interviewing scientists, conservationists, and zookeepers involved in cloning. Ultimately, she concludes that the act of recalibrating nature through science is what most disturbs us about cloning animals in captivity, revealing that debates over cloning become, in the end, a site of political struggle between different human groups. Moreover, Friese explores the implications of the social role that animals at the zoo play in the first place—how they are viewed, consumed, and used by humans for our own needs. A unique study uniting sociology and the study of science and technology, Cloning Wild Life demonstrates just how much bioscience reproduces and changes our ideas about the meaning of life itself.
