Book Description:

An Introduction to Human Molecular Genetics
Second Edition
Jack J. Pasternak
The Second Edition of this internationally acclaimed text expands its
coverage of the molecular genetics of inherited human diseases with the
latest research findings and discoveries. Using a unique, systems-based
approach, the text offers readers a thorough explanation of the gene
discovery process and how defective genes are linked to inherited
disease states in major organ and tissue systems. All the latest
developments in functional genomics, proteomics, and microarray
technology have been thoroughly incorporated into the text.
The first part of the text introduces readers to the fundamentals of
cytogenetics and Mendelian genetics. Next, techniques and strategies for
gene manipulation, mapping, and isolation are examined. Readers will
particularly appreciate the text's exceptionally thorough and clear
explanation of genetic mapping. The final part features unique coverage
of the molecular genetics of distinct biological systems, covering
muscle, neurological, eye, cancer, and mitochondrial disorders.
Throughout the text, helpful figures and diagrams illustrate and clarify
complex material.
Readers familiar with the first edition will recognize the text's same
lucid and engaging style, and will find a wealth of new and expanded
material that brings them fully up to date with a current understanding
of the field, including:
* New chapters on complex genetic disorders, genomic imprinting, and human population genetics
* Expanded and fully revised section on clinical genetics, covering
diagnostic testing, molecular screening, and various treatments
This text is targeted at upper-level undergraduate students, graduate
students, and medical students. It is also an excellent reference for
researchers and physicians who need a clinically relevant reference for
the molecular genetics of inherited human diseases.
