Chromosome Structural Analysis

The DNA of eukaryotes is packaged into chromosomes – each chromosome consisting of a very long molecule of DNA and various proteins (e.g. histones), and the number of chromosomes being characteristic for the species concerned. Chromosome analysis can provide a great deal of information for many aspects of cellular genetics such as DNA replication, protein:DNA interactions and genetic manipulation. This fully illustrated and informative laboratory manual on modern
techniques and approaches to the study of chromosome structure will be invaluable to researchers and academic staff in genetics, biomedical science and molecular biology.
