Nineteen chapters review the process and regulation of protein synthesis as understood through recent research. Among the topics are new insights and challenges in the mechanism of eukaryotic translat
This work on translational control--the central idea of which is that gene expression is regulated by the efficiency of utilization of messenger RNA in specifying protein synthesis--is a successor of
This book provides a premier resource on understanding the ribosome's essential nature and how it interacts with other proteins and nucleic acids to control protein synthesis. As one of the central fo
