Investigating DNA Damage

From: The American Biology Teacher | Date: May 1, 2006| Author: | Copyright information

Adavances in the field of molecular biology, powered by a technological revolution, have increased dramatically over the past decades. Notable developments such as the cloning of adult sheep, the sequencing of the human genome, and the production of genetically modified organisms capture the attention of biologists, their students, and the general public. Reflecting the great importance of recent findings, the molecular content of current textbooks continues to expand. Essential chapters in introductory texts now encompass gene regulation and biotechnology, while Mendel-meets-molecules books ...
