(Methods in Molecular Biology) 1st ed. 2016 Edition
by Jose Luis Garcia Perez (Editor)
This volume covers the latest protocols designed to identify and
characterize TEs in genomes, ancient or recently inserted. Additionally,
this book includes a series of protocols designed to understand how
host genomes act to regulate the activity of TEs, from elegant genetic
mobilization assays to key biochemical methods. Finally, this book also
includes chapters that describe how TEs can be used for biotechnological
applications. Written for the Methods in Molecular Biology
series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists
of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily
reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and
avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and practical, Transposons and Retrotransposons: Methods and Protocols aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
