Biotechnology / John Edward Smith (2009, cop. 2004)  

Public ISBD Titre : Biotechnology Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John Edward Smith (1932-....), Auteur Mention d'édition : 5th edition Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2009, cop. 2004 Importance : 1 vol. (XII- 266 p.) Présentation : ill., fig., couv. ill. en coul. Format : 26 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-88494-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 660.6 Résumé : Biotechnology is the major technology of the 21st century, yet few people realise how much it impacts on many aspects of human society. The defining aim of this new fifth edition is to re-establish the correct understanding of the term biotechnology. Using the straightforward style that made the previous editions of his textbook so popular, John Smith once again helps students with the deciphering and use of biological knowledge. He explains the historical developments in biotechnology and the range of activities from brewing beer, the treatment of sewage and other wastes, and the creation of biofuels. He also discusses the innovations in molecular biology, genomics and proteomics, systems biology and their impact on new biotechnology. In this edition John Smith also re-examines the ethics and morality of aspects of biotechnology and puts new emphasis on stem cells and regenerative medicine and micro RNA. Note de contenu : The updated fifth edition of John Smith's popular textbook, ideal for introductory course in biotechnology.

Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 1995 Importance : XVI-145 p.-[4]p. de pl. en coul. Présentation : ill., couv. ill. en coul. Format : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 0-521-48345-X Note générale : Bibliogr. p. 138-141. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 632.3 Résumé : This book provides a concise introduction to modern practices of disease control on commercial crops. This new edition has been updated to include changes in practice and legislation which have come into effect since the first edition was published, and expanded by the addition of a new chapter on the detection and identification of disease, with special emphasis on rapid molecular diagnostic techniques. Other new features include an expanded coverage of fungicides and a consideration of the problems of disease control in crops and produce entering international trade. In a concluding chapter the impact of economic, environmental and legislative pressures on the selection and use of disease control measures is considered and an overview of likely future developments in disease control presented.

Gene structure and expression / John D. Hawkins (1996)

Public ISBD Titre : Gene structure and expression Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John D. Hawkins, Auteur Mention d'édition : 3rd ed. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 1996 Importance : XIV-212 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 0-521-56043-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 574.8 Résumé : The author states in the introduction to the first edition, that he "believe(s) that it should be a useful book for medical students who wishes to become familiar with recent ideas and techniques in molecular biology to help in understanding further advances when they arrive. It will also be of use to honours and graduate students in genetics, biochemistry and those who would not necessarily regard the topics discussed here as their major interests in these subjects." It starts from chemical structure of DNA, proceeds into methodology, prokaryotic and eukaryotic gene expression, and extends its description to oncogene, immune system, etc. This book, therefore, is rather a miniaturized version of the renowned textbooks such as J.D. Watson's "Molecular Biology of the Cell" than what one might imagine from the title. Our knowledge in this field is expanding ever so rapidly, that any textbook of this comprehensiveness "will certainly be out of date before the writing is finished, let alone published.". Yet, this book is doing reasonably well to catch up recent findings in some topics, such as eukaryotic transcription and bacterial replication. Looking through the chapters, I noticed total lack of basic description of protein structure which is necessary for the claimed readership. In "1.6 Protein binds to DNA," it says "Three main types of domain structures are involved ..." without explaining what is domain structure. The chapter, "12. Some gene families" suddenly starts by describing collagen. Isn't the concept of gene family the group of genes that encodes proteins of related structure? Descriptions in 12.8 (Polyproteins are proteolytically processed to yield the active hormones) are certainly misplaced. Turning the pages, I f Gene structure and expression [texte imprimé] / John D.
