Gene Expression Systems: Using Nature for the Art of Expression offers detailed information on a wide variety of gene expression systems from an array of organisms. It describes several different types of expression systems including transient, stable, viral, and transgenic systems. Each chapter is written by a leader in the field. The book includes timelines and examples for each expression system, and provides an overview of the future of recombinant protein expression.

Key Features
* Provides detailed information on expression systems
* Covers a variety of promoters and host organisms enabling researchers to tailor protocols to their specific needs
* Includes timelines and examples
* Compares pros and cons of each method

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Recombinant gene expression is the fastest growing area in the study of molecular biology. By the time the Human Genome Project is completed (~2002), several thousand sequences will be known, but the purpose of the resultant expression products will remain a mystery. Gene discovery requires efficient expression systems for determining the structure and function of gene products. Gene Expression Systems covers a variety of promoters and host organisms that researchers can tailor to their specific needs.

About the Author
