Download or read book Molecular Genetics of Yeast written by John R. Johnston and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1994 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book covers comprehensively all current experimental procedures used in the research of the genetics and molecular biology of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Featuring detailed protocols and practical tips, it guarantees easy access to a wide range of specialized topics within thisrapidly advancing field. Internationally-recognized experts present all methods currently in use, discussing topics such as DNA isolulation, cloning and expression vectors, cosmid cloning, construction and use of cDNA libraries, plasmid shuffling and mutant isolulation. Chapters on Ty insertionalmutagenesis, high efficiency transformation, cell-free translation of mRNAs, Ty virus-like particles, and applications to industrial strains of yeast are also included. Researchers in the fields of molecular biology, genetics, and biochemistry working with this yeast, as well as professionals of thebiotechnology industry will refer to this practical reference frequently.
