Progress in Nucleic Acid Research and Molecular Biology
Praise for the Serial:"Full of interest not only for the molecular biologist - for whom the numerous references will be invaluable - but will also appeal to a much wider circle of biologists, and in fact to all those who are concerned with the living cell."--British Medical Journal - Provides a forum for discussion of new discoveries, approaches, and ideas in molecular biology - Contributions from leaders in their fields - Abundant references
Metal Ions in Biological Systems
"Volume 33 focuses on the vibrant research area of probing nucleic acids--the carriers of the genetic code--by metal ion complexes of small molecules providing an authoritative, timely account of this fascinating topic by over 50 distinguished experts."
Nucleic Acids and Molecular Biology
A wide range of topics are covered, including articles on nucleic acid structure, through their interactions with proteins to the control of gene expression. A number of authors address the subject of RNA, including the difficult but important subject of its chemical synthesis, the complexities of its structures and the mechanisms of transcript splicing. The probing of DNA structure is reviewed in papers on the application of hydroxyl radical and 1,10 phenanthroline copper cleavages. A number of important DNA-protein interactions are discussed, including DNA polymerase, the tryptophan and deoR repressors, and the resolvase enzymes which cleave Holliday junctions in recombination. Gene transcription is also covered, from the points of view of DNA methylation, mammalian ribosomal and avian lysozyme genes, and the control of transcription in the proto-oncogene c-fos. Finally, the plant kingdom has not been forgotten with articles on development and transposition in plants.
Bioelectrochemistry of Biomacromolecules
Bioelectrochemistry: Principles and Practice provides a comprehensive compilation of all the physicochemical aspects of the different biochemical and physiological processes. Macromolecules, essentially nucleic acids, proteins and complex carbohydrates, are the building blocks of cell structure and function. This fifth volume in the "Bioelectrochemistry" series deals essentially with water-soluble biomacromolecules, since the properties of membrane-bound proteins are considered in other volumes of this series. The first chapter provides an extensive review of the structure, chemical reactivity and electromagnetic properties of nucleic acids. The following five chapters concentrate on protein...
Metals and Genetics
During the past few years, major scientific discoveries have greatly contributed to our understanding of the relationship between metals and genetics. The fields which have contrib uted to this area range from Clinical Medicine and Genetics to Biochemistry and Chemistry. The aim of this book is to bring together investigators from these diverse fields to reflect on the broad implications of direct and indirect interactions of metals and genetic components. The volume begins with a tribute to the late Karen Wetterhahn, an outstanding scien tist in the field, who will be sadly missed by her friends and colleagues because of her un timely death. The book has 28 chapters contributed by scientist...
DNA and RNA Cleavers and Chemotherapy of Cancer and Viral Diseases
The September 1995 proceedings papers represent an increased research activity in the area of designing drugs that cleave DNA and RNA with sequence-specificity to use the resulting compounds as therapeutic agents in the treatment of cancer and viral diseases. The conference focused on bringing together scientists working in particular areas of this research, providing an overview of DNA cleavage by enediyn molecules, bleomycin paradigms of DNA cleavers based on metal complexes, site specific DNA cleavage, mechanism of oxidative DNA cleavage, RNA cleavage by RNase H, and hydrolysis of RNA by ribozymes and metal complexes.

RNA-Ligand Interactions, Part B: Molecular Biology Methods
RNA-Ligand Interactions, Part B focuses on molecular biology methods. Major topics covered include: solution probe methods, tethered-probe methodologies, in vitro affinity selection methodologies, genetic methodologies for detecting RNA-protein interactions, protein engineering methodologies useful for RNA-protein interaction studies, and cell biology methods.RNA-Ligand Interactions, Part A, its companion, VOLUME 317 focuses on structural biology methods.The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. Now with more than 300 volumes (all of them still in print), the series contains much material still relevant today--truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.
