EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
Regulatory RNAs" was the theme of the 71st annual Cold Spring Harbor Symposium on Quantitative Biology, where scientists from around the world presented the latest advances in the biology of RNAs, including RNA interference, transcriptional and translational control, RNA editing, and the role of RNAs in biological circuits and epigenetic events. Investigators discussed the latest technologies aimed at large-scale characterization of RNAs, as well as the roles of small RNAs in development and cancer. This volume is a timely survey of this important new area of molecular biology.

	The RNA World, Third Edition (Cold Spring Harbor Monograph Series) by Raymond F. Gesteland (Author), Raymond F. Gesteland (Editor) Recent studies on the activities of RNA in the cell have revolutionized our understanding of the many roles played by this molecule. The first two editions of The RNA World (1993, 1999) shed light on the preÂ–biotic era dominated by this versatile molecule, and provided an overview of the state of RNA research at the time. The new third edition of The RNA World updates this perspective, describing the vast array of newly discovered roles for RNA in the modern world. The updated original...
	Epigenetics by C. David Allis (Author), Thomas Jenuwein (Author), Danny Reinberg (Author), Marie-Laure Caparros (Author) The regulation of gene expression in many biological processes involves epigenetic mechanisms. In this new volume, 24 chapters written by experts in the field discuss epigenetic effects from many perspectives. There are chapters on the basic molecular mechanisms underpinning epigenetic regulation, discussion of cellular processes that rely on this kind of regulation, and surveys of organisms in which it has been most studied. Thus, there are chapters on histone and DNA methylation, siRNAs...
	The Regulatory Genome: Gene Regulatory Networks In Development And Evolution by Eric H. Davidson (Author) Gene regulatory networks are the most complex, extensive control systems found in nature. The interaction between biology and evolution has been the subject of great interest in recent years. The author, Eric Davidson, has been instrumental in elucidating this relationship. He is a world renowned scientist and a major contributor to the field of developmental biology. The Regulatory Genome beautifully explains the control of animal development in terms of structure/function relations...
	microRNA: Biology, Function & Expression (Nuts & Bolts series) by Neil J. Clarke; Philippe Sanseau (Author) Providing a comprehensive overview of a fast-emerging field, this volume dedicated to the biological role of microRNAs (miRNAs) discusses methods for identifying and characterizing their functions and looks at potential applications of microRNA research in medicine and pharmacology. miRNAs are small, noncoding RNA molecules that appear to regulate gene expression. Found in plant and animal species and possibly traceable back to ancient forms of life, miRNAs are now estimated to regulate a third...
