This third edition of Recombinant Gene Expression is a lot more than just an update of the previous edition. Although some of the authors that contributed in 2004 were also invited to participate in this new project, this volume contains brand new protocols and topics not covered before.
While organizing a book of such an extensive topic as gene expression, it was indispensable to pick and choose from the multitude of strategies, vectors, promoters, and so on, so the coverage of topics is far from exhaustive. Some expression systems were omitted because of size limitations and even within areas presented unavoidably; some research approaches were unevenly treated.
The information provided in Recombinant Gene Expression , is organized in sections by biological host: Bacteria, lower eukaryotes, fungi, plants and plant cells, and animals and animal cells, presenting one or two authoritative reviews and several protocol chapters in each section. Each chapter concludes with a section containing excellent notes where authors offer their valuable expertise of scientists and their personal views of strategy planning, as well as a variety of approaches, and alternatives that will surely be useful and inspiring to you, the reader.
