Cagle Philip T., Allen Timothy Craig (eds.) Basic Concepts of Molecular Pathology

Springer, 2009. — 195 p. — (Molecular Pathology Library) — ISBN: 978-0-387-89625-0The Molecular Pathology Library series was created to bridge the gap between traditional basic science textbooks in molecular biology and traditional medical textbooks for organ-specific diseases. Basic Concepts of Molecular Pathology is designed as a stand-alone book to provide the pathologist, clinician or radiologist with a concise review of the essential terminology, concepts and tools of molecular biology that are applied to the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of human diseases in the age of personalized medicine.Genes, Gene Products, and Transcription Factors
