Description of  GENE FAMILIES: STUDIES OF DNA, RNA, ENZYMES & PROTEINS

9810243847 pdf The concept of isozymes, developed by Clement Markert and Freddy Mller in 1959, paved the way for extensive studies on enzyme, protein, and gene multiplicity across all living organisms. This volume contains 27 contributions from international researchers which focus on genes and gene families as the primary determinants of isozymes and protein multiplicity. A sampling of topics includes molecular evolution and environmental stress, transgenic fish and biosafety, and the role of carbonic anhydrase isozymes in cancer. Annotation c.
