For one-semester introductory undergraduate cell biology courses, Cooper and Hausman (Boston U.) present this updated text. The new edition includes developments in the role of microRNAs in the regulation of gene expression and more information on genomics, proteomics, and signaling networks; translational regulation and the mTOR signaling pathway; the roles of specialized lipid domains in cell surface processes; advances in stem cell biology; and oncogenes and the rational design of new anticancer drugs. New chapters and sections cover cell death and renewal, bioinformatics and systems biology, and cell-matrix interactions. Sidebars and margin elements have been added and chapter questions have been revised. The volume is co-published with the American Society for Microbiology.
