The new edition of Gene Control, for the first time, provides extensive coverage on prokaryotic gene regulation, which makes it the only textbook offering a complete and detailed account of gene control for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. The core objective of this edition is to educate students about the fundamental principles and mechanisms governing gene expression, regulation, and function. To reinforce these ideas, each chapter now includes discussion questions to promote critical thinking. There are also multiple choice questions and animations for students, and a large question bank and figure slides for instructors. The textbook also emphasizes the vital role of scientific experiments and evidence in shaping our current understanding of gene control and provides comprehensive coverage of essential gene expression techniques and methodologies throughout the book.
This extensively updated edition of the renowned textbook Gene Control will remain a valuable resource for students, instructors, researchers, and medical professionals exploring various aspects of gene control, ranging from the regulation of genes in infectious diseases to embryonic development across different organisms, from bacteria to humans.
Professor David Latchman has forty years’ experience in the field of Gene Control, having set up his own laboratory to research in this area in 1984. He is the sole author of two previous editions of Gene Control as well as five editions of its forerunner book Gene Regulation. He is Deputy Vice Chancellor of the University of London and Emeritus Vice Chancellor of Birkbeck University, which he led from 2003-2023. He is also Emeritus Professor at both Birkbeck and University College London. In 2010 he was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire by the late Queen Elizabeth II. Venugopalan Cheriyath, PhD, is Professor and Head of the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences at Texas A&M University-Commerce. He has research experience in areas of both basic and applied aspects of eukaryotic transcription, cancer biology, genomics, and epigenetics. His laboratory is well known for the charctarerization of interferon stimulated gene IFI6/G1P3 and its role in antagonizing the anticancer effects of interferons. Professor Cheriyath teaches gene regulation, epigenetics, molecular genetics, genetic engineering, cell biology, and stem cell biology courses to undergraduate and graduate students at Texas A&M-Commerce.
