| Organelles, Genomes and Eukaryote Phylogeny: An Evolutionary Synthesis in the Age of Genomics (Systematics Association Special Volume, No. 68)
by Robert P Hirt (Editor), David S. Horner (Editor)
Over the last five years, the study of early eukaryote evolution has undergone a revolution, with ideas that prevailed for twenty years being revised, updated or abandoned in the face of more sophisticated analysis of molecular sequence data. A new synthesis is emerging, although major conflict still exists within the research community.Organelles, Genomes and Eukaryote Phylogeny covers recent developments in the field of "deep level" phylogenetic inference of eukaryotes, especially with...

| Genomics and Proteomics in Nutrition (Nutrition in Health and Disease)
by Carolyn D. Berdanier (Editor), Naima Moustaid-Moussa (Editor)
With contributions from 66 world-renowned authorities on the subject, Genomics And Proteomics In Nutrition focuses on the effect of genetic expression on protein production, establishing links between gene expression and nutrition, the influence of micro- and macronutrients on cellular homeostasis, and the relationship between diet, genetic predisposition, and human disease. Shows how bioinformatics and functional genomic databases can transform molecular biology research using a yeast...

Product Description
It was once assumed that mitochondrial diseases were rare and that few people were affected. As knowledge has grown about these organelles and their function, it became clear that mitochondrial malfunction could be linked to several chronic diseases. Diabetes has been associated with DNA mutation and can cause mutation itself. This text discusses findings involving the effects of disease on mitochondrial number, mitogenesis, and the base sequence of mitochondrial DNA. Experts discuss their study of mitochondria and what happens when it malfunctions. This book also explores the idea that mutated mitochondrial DNA can result in disease, and vice versa. |
