Chromatin and Gene
Regulation enables the reader to understand the science of this
rapidly moving field. Chromatin is a fundamental component in the
network of controls that regulates gene expression. Many human
diseases have been linked to disruption of these control processes
by genetic or environmental factors, and unravelling the mechanisms
by which they operate is one of the most exciting and rapidly
developing areas of modern biology. Chromatin is central both to
the rapid changes in gene transcription by which cells respond to
changes in their environment and also to the maintenance of gene
expression patterns from one cell generation to the next. This book
will be an invaluable guide to undergraduate and postgraduate
students in the biological sciences and all those with an interest
in the medical implications of aberrant gene expression.
