Molecular Biology of the Cell

Product Information

Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition: The Problems Book by John Wilson and Tim Hunt The Problems Book is designed to help students appreciate the ways in which experiments and simple calculations can lead to an understanding of how cells work. It provides problems to accompany Chapters 1–20 of Molecular Biology of the Cell. Each chapter of problems is divided into sections that correspond to those of the main textbook and review key terms, test for understanding basic concepts, pose research-based problems, and now include MCAT-style questions which help students to prepare for standardized medical school admission tests. Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition: The Problems Book should be useful for homework assignments and as a basis for class discussion. It could even provide ideas for exam questions. Solutions for all of the problems are provided in the book. Solutions for the end-of-chapter problems for Chapters 1–24 in the main textbook are also found in The Problems Book Phospholipid Exchange Proteins Help to Transport Phospholipids from the ER to Mitochondria and Peroxisomes In a Reaction Center, Light Energy Captured by Chlorophyll Creates a Strong Electron Donor from a Weak One

A selection of problems, written by John Wilson and Tim Hunt, appears in the text at the end of each chapter. New to this edition are problems for the last four chapters on multicellular organisms. The complete solutions to all of these problems can be found in Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition: The Problems Book which if you want then comment below will upload. A Strand-directed Mismatch Repair System Removes Replication Errors That Escape from the Replication Machine Highly Condensed Chromatin Replicates Late, While Genes in Less Condensed Chromatin Tend to Replicate Early Dpp and Sog Set Up a Secondary Morphogen Gradient to Refine the Pattern of the Dorsal Part of the Embryo Writing and illustrating a text book on a topic as elaborate as the molecular biology of the cell is a huge undertaking, made all the more difficult by the continuous advances and unexpected revisions characteristic of this topic. Yes, there are some fundamental biological concepts that underpin this wide ranging subject, but an appreciation of the work being carried out in this field also requires an understanding of other more specialised subject areas such as biochemistry, biophysics, bioinformatics and biomechanics. The task of condensing all this information into a reasonably concise and readable book that retains its relevance for a number of years is daunting. Having to include appropriate illustrations that clarify and explain all this material makes such an undertaking a mammoth exercise. Furthermore, the competition from freely and instantly accessible online information requires any such book to offer a unique and cost-effective solution to the needs of impecunious (at least as far as study-associated expenses are concerned) students.
