The DNA: Regulated flow of genetic information

The text begins with clear explanation of the basic structure and function of nucleic acids. The gene regulation part starts with description of operons, regulons and stimulons and their role in gene regulation in bacteria. The role of chromatin structure and epigenetic modifications in regulating gene expression in Eukaryotes is described here. This textbook would be of interest to biotechnology, genetics, molecular biology, biology and microbiology students.
