| Résumé : | Introduction to Molecular Biology, Genomics and Proteomics for Biomedical Engineers Introduction to Molecular Biology, Genomics and Proteomics for Engineers is dedicated to broadening the background and piquing the interest of those seeking selfstudy in this globaly vested yet largely unchartered field. With a sound approach to this intricately complex area, the book illustrates the biochemical relations that permit life to exist. It hones in on the specialized organic molecules in living organisms and how they interact and react. In response to growing worldwide interest in biotechnology, this valuable text sheds light on the evolutionary theories and future trends in genetic medicine and stem cell research. It provides a broader knowledge base on life-permitting complexities, illustrates how to model them quantitatively, and demonstrates how to manipulate them in genomic-based medicine and genetic engineering. Tbis indispensable work- o Defines complex terminology in a large, comprehensive glossary o Addresses ethical issues in stem cell research, cloning, and the creation of genetically modified plants and animals o Contains a sizeable bibliography for further study of discussed topics o Describes the role of stem cells in regenerative medicine and in cancer treatment o Comprises robust chapters on nucleic acids and proteins-the building blocks of molecular biology The book successfully conveys the human progress in the manipulation of genomes at the molecular level. Consequently, it allows for a greater appreciation of the incredible complexity of the biochemical systems required to sustain life in its many forms. |
