书名:Molecular virology and biology of iridoviruses
出版社:American Medical Publishers
作者: Romero,Gus
ISBN:9781639277322
价格:1134.86
内容简介:Iridoviruses refer to a type of double-stranded DNA viruses with an icosahedral structure that belong to the iridoviridae family. The members of this family can infect invertebrates, protozoa, vertebrates and algae. The host range of iridoviruses differs, such as some have a broad range of hosts, while others are limited to a small number of hosts. Non-lethal and concealed infections are common in various hosts. Horizontal transmission of iridoviruses generally occurs through predation or cannibalism of infected invertebrate hosts. They produce iridescence in the infected tissues and reproduce in the cytoplasm. Iridoviruses infect a variety of animals including reptiles, molluscs, fish, insects, amphibians and crustaceans. These viruses have a distinctive trait which is terminally redundant and circularly permuted organization of the genome. This book aims to shed light on iridoviruses. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about the molecular virology and biology of these viruses. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject. Read more

书名:Viral replication : a comprehensive study
出版社:Foster Academics
作者:Houle,Audrey.
ISBN:9781646465743
价格:1120.38
内容简介:Viral replication refers to the creation of biological viruses in the target host cells during an infection. Viruses should first enter the cell before viral replication could take place. The virus continuously infects new hosts by producing numerous copies of its genome and packaging these copies. The replication of viruses varies significantly and is determined by the type of genes involved. Majority of DNA viruses accumulate in the nucleus whereas majority of RNA viruses grow only in the cytoplasm. Viruses can only replicate in living cells. The host cell must supply the synthetic machinery, energy and low-molecular-weight precursors, which are required for the synthesis of nucleic acids and viral proteins. The nucleic acid polymerases are behind the replication of genome of viruses and they are also involved in producing genetic variety, which is necessary for evading the host's defenses. Polymerases and other replication machinery components could be used as anti-viral targets. This book explores all the important aspects of viral replication in the present day scenario. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area of study as well as for experts. Read more
书名:New insights into virus bioinformatics
出版社:Callisto Reference
作者:Mason,Jake
ISBN:9781641167642
价格:1127.66
内容简介:Viruses are microscopic and infectious microorganisms that are made up of genetic material enclosed in a protein coating. They cause a variety of serious infectious diseases including influenza, hepatitis, common cold, rabies, AIDS, smallpox, dengue fever and measles. Viruses are classified into four types based on the host cell that they infect, and these include plant viruses, bacteriophages, animal viruses and fungal viruses. Virology is the scientific study of viruses and virus-like agents. The study of viral infections and outbreaks using methods of bioinformatics has become essential to virology research. These methods have been used effectively to diagnose, treat and prevent infections in both animals and humans. Bioinformatics investigations that can be performed on viruses include motif and epitope recognition, homology searching, identification of open reading frames, sequence alignment, and gene prediction. This book provides new insights into virus bioinformatics. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a
thorough understanding of the subject. Read more

书名:Chromatin and epigenetics : an introduction to epigenetic mechanisms
出版社:World Scientific Publishing
作者:Pirrotta Vincenzo
ISBN:9789811257629
价格:1257.14
内容简介:This book is an introduction to epigenetics, a controversial term that denotes the mechanisms that instruct the genome on how to express the purely genetic information that encodes proteins. Starting with the discovery of repressor proteins in the 1960s, epigenetics evolved into a kind of user manual for the genetic information, telling the genome if, when, how much and in what cells to read genes. Advances in epigenetics in the past 15 years have revealed how it lies at the heart of virtually every branch of biological and medical sciences and an understanding of its basic principles is therefore essential for every student in this field.The field of chromatin and epigenetics has developed very rapidly in the past 15-20 years. The pace in the field of epigenetics has now slowed down, the basic outlines of the mechanisms and implications have solidified and a consensus has been achieved among the researchers in the field. At the same time, these mechanisms and implications are now an integral part of how we think about the genome. Genes are more than just DNA and more than just protein-coding sequences and this realization has revolutionized our understanding of the genome, gene expression and its regulation in development, health and disease. It is time, therefore, for a textbook to help train a new generation of biologists and health scientists as well as providing a basic competence among practitioners in allied fields. The present book has grown out of a course given for the past 13 years to advanced undergraduates at Rutgers University. In keeping with the experience in that course, the book is abundantly illustrated, presents a wealth of specific examples, and includes a chapter describing a number of methods and techniques that have driven the advances in the field.

书名:Algebraic biology, matrix genetics, and genetic intelligence
出版社:World Scientific Publishing
作者:Petoukhov Sergei V.
ISBN:9789811278259
价格:1412.94
内容简介:Historically, mathematics, probability, and statistics have been widely used in the biological sciences. Recent progress in genomics has yielded many millions of gene sequences. But what do these sequences tell us and what are the generalities and rules governed by them It seems that we understand very little about the genetic contexts required to "read" them. There is more to life than the genomic blueprint of each organism. Life functions within the natural laws that we know and the ones we do not know. The development of modern mathematical natural sciences is based on the use of certain mathematical tools. Mathematics can be used to understand life from the molecular to the biosphere level.This book provides the foundation and latest advances for an emerging research area that uses tools from symbolic computation, computer algebra and logic, algebraic geometry, fractal geometry, probability and statistics, and matrix algebra to formalize and solve biological problems and explore its applications in algebraic biology and code biology. It introduces highly interdisciplinary topics in biomathematics such as matrix genetics, gestalt biology, bio-antenna arrays, resonance genetics, quantum biology, and more.Key Features?Reveal algebraic symmetrical patterns hidden inside genetic code systems?Draw connections between algebraic structures and systems biology?Present potential applications in various fields
