Product Description
Product Description
Human Molecular Genetics provides an essential intorduction to this complex and fast moving field. it explains the special problems encountered in human genome analysis and describes the methodologies that have been developed to construct gentic and physical maps of the human genome.
From the Back Cover
Our genetic constitution has a major influence on lifetime health. The identification of the genetic components involved in common diseases can lead to predictive tests of individual susceptibility and novel treatments for the diseases when they have occurred. The analysis of the human genome is a formidable undertaking and has necessitated the development of new research methodologies and international collaborations between scientists on an unprecedented scale.
Human Molecular Genetics provides an essential introduction to this complex and fast moving field. The material covered has been carefully selected and structured to provide a concise overview for second and third year undergraduate students taking modules within general biological or genetics degrees.
The book explains the special problems encountered in human genome analysis and describes the methodologies that have been developed to construct genetic and physical maps of the human genome. It describes the characterisation of genes responsible for single gene disorders, the dissection of complex or multifactorial diseases, gene therapy and gene testing. The history, goals and progress of the human genome project are considered along with the strategies that will be employed to complete the sequencing of the genome by the early years of the twenty-first century.

Peter Sudbery is Senior Lecturer in Genetics at the Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Sheffield University.
The Cell and Molecular Biology series provides introductions to key, exciting areas of cell and molecular biology, stimulating student's imaginations and initiative to bridge the gap between memorising concepts and the active approach needed for research and literature review projects. This active learning series also introduces students to experimental design and information retrieval and analysis, including exploration of the World Wide Web.
