Methods in Enzymology #350: Guide to Yeast Genetics and Molecular Cell Biology, Part B

by Christine Guthrie

Methods in Enzymology #350: Guide to Yeast Genetics and Molecular Cell Biology, Part B Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This volume and its companion, Volume 351, are specifically designed to meet the needs of graduate students and postdoctoral students as well as researchers, by providing all the up-to-date methods necessary to study genes in yeast. Procedures are included that enable newcomers to set up a yeast laboratory and to master basic manipulations. Relevant background and reference information given for procedures can be used as a guide to developing protocols in a number of disciplines. Specific topics addressed in this book include basic techniques, making mutants, genomics, and proteomics.

Review:

"...this is an excellent collection of methods that is certain to be an important handbook for yeast researchers."

-Will Prinz, National Institutes of Health for ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY (April 2003)

Review:

stitutes of Health for ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY (April 2003)

Synopsis:

Much of what is known about living systems and the way that they function has been learned from the study of so-called model organisms, including bacteria, yeasts, files, worms, and mice. The founders of the Human Genome Project valued these other organisms and their contributions to biomedical science so much that they made obtaining the whole genome of each an important goal, along with the main objective of obtaining the whole genome of humans.

Table of Contents

Topics covered include: Basic Techniques, Making Mutants, Genomics, and Proteomics
