Evolution of the Protein Synthesis Machinery and Its Regulation (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The “omics” era has given a new perspective to the findings on the origin and evolution of the process of translation. This book provides insight into the evolution of the translation process and machinery from a modern perspective. Written by leading experts in molecular biology, this text looks into the origins and evolution of the protein synthetic machinery.
