From the Back Cover
Chromatin is the basic structural matrix of the eukaryotic chromosome and understanding its structure and function is essential to fully comprehend the mechanisms of gene regulation and the replication and recombination of DNA in higher organisms.
This Third Edition of Chromatin: Structure & Function brings the reader up-to-date with the remarkable progress in chromatin research over the past three years. It has been extensively rewritten to cover new material on chromatin re-modeling, histone modification, nuclear compartmentalization, DNA methylation, and transcriptional co-activators and co-repressors. Also featured in this third edition are 60 new illustrations.
Written in a clear and concise fashion, Chromatic: Structure & Function is essential reading for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and newcomers to the fields of biochemistry, cell biology, and molecular genetics.
