Mobile genetic elements are present in all organisms. They are a major cause of spontaneous genetic change and are now exploited by geneticists as important tools for obtaining mutants, isolating genes, and for studying gene expression. The approach is comparative and the book addressestransposable elements as genetic tools, mechanisms that lead to genetic change, and how novel elements contribute to organism biology and evolution.Sherratt, David is the author of 'Mobile Genetic Elements: Frontiers in Molecular Biology - David J. Sherratt - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780199634057 and ISBN 019963405X.
