Progress in Nucleic Acid Research and Molecular Biology
- Provides a forum for discussion of new discoveries, approaches, and ideas in molecular biology - Includes contributions from leaders in their fields - Abundantly referenced
Genetic Engineering
Aspects of genetic engineering research emphasized in this volume are applications to plants (crop plants and grass, both important for human needs) and new methodologies, such as Tar cloning, which make it much easier to isolate specific regions from complex genomes. Another subject discussed is linear DNA replication of prokaryotes.
The Bacteriophages
It has been 10 years since Plenum included a series of reviews on bacte riophages, in Comprehensive Virology. Chapters in that series contained physical-genetic maps but very little DNA sequence information. Now the complete DNA sequence is known for some phages, and the se quences for others will soon follow. During the past 10 years two phages have come into common use as reagents: A phage for cloning single copies of genes, and Ml3 for cloning and DNA sequencing by the dideoxy termi nation method. Also during that period the use of alternative sigma fac tors by RNA polymerase has become established for SPOl and T4. This seems to be a widely used mechanism in bacteria, since it has been im...
The Bacteriophages
This authoritative, timely, and comprehensively referenced compendium on the bacteriophages explores current views of how viruses infect bacteria. In combination with classical phage molecular genetics, new structural, genomic, and single-molecule technologies have rendered an explosion in our knowledge of phages. Bacteriophages, the most abundant and genetically diverse type of organism in the biosphere, were discovered at the beginning of the 20th century and enjoyed decades of used as anti-bacterial agents before being eclipsed by the antibiotic era. Since 1988, phages have come back into the spotlight as major factors in pathogenesis, bacterial evolution, and ecology. This book reveals their compelling elegence of function and their almost inconceivable diversity. Much of the founding work in molecular biology and structural biology was done on bacteriophages. These are widely used in molecular biology research and in biotechnology, as probes and markers, and in the popular method of assesing gene expression.
Diaspora Engagement at a Time of Crisis
This book explores the complicated dynamics of the global diaspora and its central role in times of crisis. The chapters in this volume examine how diaspora communities, often scattered across different countries, become crucial actors in times of need in their home countries. Using a mix of real-life examples and academic analysis, the authors document how diasporas mobilise resources, influence policy and provide support in times of crisis such as natural disasters, economic downturns and political unrest. Written in an accessible style, this book offers the reader a compelling insight into the powerful influence of global diaspora networks. It illuminates the ways in which these communities bridge the gap between nations and offers a unique perspective on the interconnected world in which we live. Whether you are a student, policy maker, or simply curious about global affairs, this book will deepen your understanding of diaspora engagement in today's complex world. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of South Asian Diaspora.

Mechanics of Machines
Industries that use machines in their day-to-day operations include power, automobile, steel, and chemical plants sectors, to mention just a few. As these industries' services evolve, their machines must also evolve. To design these machines, you must understand both their performance requirements and the physical concepts governing their motion. Emphasizing the industrial relevance of the subject matter, Mechanics of Machines provides the fundamental information students need to decide on the criteria for designing new machines and for analyzing the root cause of problems arising out of malfunctioning of existing equipment.
Homelessness to Hope
Homelessness to Hope: Research, Policy and Practices on Global Perspectives brings together stories, observations and critical appraisals that have emerged out of the interdisciplinary studies spanning across the global North and South. It explores how diverse accounts on homelessness and homeless people are situated within the structural-institutional arrangements of the developing and developed worlds. Through its comparative framework, the book offers a broader understanding of the multiple ways in which homelessness is experienced, perceived, and addressed. The book uses cross-cutting theoretical framings (such as resilience, wellbeing, social-ecological systems, sustainability, urban pl...
