Essential cell biology / created by Bruce Alberts University of California, San Francisco, Karen Hopkin Science writer, Alexander Johnson University of California, San Francisco, David Morgan University of California, Martin Raff University College London (Emeritus), Keith Roberts University of California, San Francisco. and Peter Walter. - Fifth edition - xxxii, irregular pagination : illustrations (some coloured) ; 27 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index
Cells: the fundamental units of life Chemical components of cells Energy, catalysis, and biosynthesis Protein structure and function DNA and chromosomes DNA replication and repair From DNA to protein: how cells read the genome Control of gene expression How genes and genomes evolve Analyzing the structure and function of genes Membrane structure Transport across cell membranes How cells obtain energy from food Energy generation in mitochondria and chloroplasts Intracellular compartments and protein transport Cell signaling Cytoskeleton The cell division cycle Sexual reproduction and genetics Cell communities: tissues, stem cells, and cancer
Cell biology is taught in classrooms around the world to provide students with a firm conceptual grounding in biology. This text provides basic, core knowledge about how cells work and uses colour images and diagrams to emphasize concepts and aid understanding
