商品描述
RNA technology is poised to drive a new era of discovery and innovation across human and veterinary medicine, agriculture, and industry--an inflection point as consequential as the recombinant DNA revolution of the 1980s. As the first comprehensive survey of noncoding RNAs, this textbook provides a timely and authoritative introduction to one of the most dynamic frontiers in modern biology. It offers a broad overview of RNA biology while serving as a companion volume to The Biology of RNA: Long and Small Non-coding RNAs, and two forthcoming volumes on the practical applications of RNA. Designed to promote learning and long-term retention, each chapter features overviews, learning objectives, and clearly highlighted key concepts, definitions, and key takeaways, along with case studies and quizzes that help readers apply what they have learned. Bringing together foundational discoveries, current research, and emerging directions, this textbook is an indispensable resource for undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and all readers seeking a deeper understanding of this fast-moving field.
Advance Praise for The Biology of RNA:
"A rare RNA textbook that closes the gap between basic RNA biology and the clinical revolution unfolding around it." - Ada E. Yonath, PhD, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2009
"Anyone who reads it will come away with a far better understanding and appreciation of this important molecule that is fundamental to all of our lives." - Robert S. Langer, David H. Koch Institute Professor, MIT.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
RNA技術即將推動人類和獸醫醫學、農業及工業的新發現與創新時代——這是一個與1980年代重組DNA革命同樣重要的轉折點。作為首部全面調查非編碼RNA的教科書，本書為現代生物學中最具活力的前沿之一提供了及時且權威的介紹。它提供了RNA生物學的廣泛概述，同時作為《RNA的生物學：長鏈和小型非編碼RNA》的伴隨卷，以及兩部即將出版的關於RNA實際應用的卷冊。每一章節都旨在促進學習和長期記憶，包含概述、學習目標，以及清晰突出的關鍵概念、定義和主要收穫，並附有案例研究和測驗，幫助讀者應用所學知識。本教科書匯集了基礎發現、當前研究和新興方向，是本科生、研究生、研究人員以及所有希望深入了解這一快速發展領域的讀者不可或缺的資源。
《RNA的生物學》的提前讚譽：
「一本罕見的RNA教科書，填補了基本RNA生物學與其周圍臨床革命之間的鴻溝。」- Ada E. Yonath，博士，2009年諾貝爾化學獎得主。
「任何閱讀這本書的人都會對這種對我們所有生命至關重要的分子有更深刻的理解和欣賞。」- Robert S. Langer，麻省理工學院大衛·H·科赫研究所教授。
作者簡介
Dr. Haseltine is the Chair of ACCESS Health International and Professor of Regenerative Medicine at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. With over 50 years of experience, he has worked extensively with RNA. He co-discovered enhancers during his professional work at Harvard University and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Later, as founder and CEO of Human Genome Sciences, the company became the first in the world to isolate a complete set of protein-coding messenger RNAs and hundreds of thousands of other noncoding mRNAs. He continues to work on the fundamental role of RNA in biology and its medical applications.
Dr. Roberto Patarca is the Chief Medical Officer at ACCESS Health International, has published over 100 manuscripts and nine books, served as Editor-in-Chief and Book Series Editor for Haworth Medical Press, and was elected member of the Academy of Sciences of Latin America. Their contributions have sparked progressive dialogues within the scientific community.
