RNA, the Epicenter of Genetic Information: A new understanding of molecular biology
John Mattick, Paulo AmaralKey Features:
• Documents the confused early history of DNA, RNA and proteins - a transformative history of molecular biology like no other.
• Integrates the influences of biochemistry and genetics on the landscape of molecular biology.
• Chronicles the important discoveries, preconceptions and misconceptions that retarded or misdirected progress.
• Highlights major pioneers and contributors to molecular biology, with a focus on RNA and noncoding DNA.
• Summarizes the mounting evidence for the central roles of non-protein-coding RNA in cell and developmental biology.
• Provides a thought-provoking retrospective and forward-looking perspective for advanced students and professional researchers.
