Inducible Gene Expression, Volume 1 Environmental Stresses and Nutrients

Cells have evolved multiple strategies to adapt the composition and quality of their protein equipment to needs imposed by changes in intra- and extracellular conditions. The appearance of pro teins transmit­ ting novel functional properties to cells can be controlled at a transcrip­ tional, posttra...
