N2  - Completely revised and updated, this third editionof the best selling Molecular Biotechnology: Principles of Recombinant DNA covers both the underlying scientific principles and the wide–ranging industrial, agricultural, pharmaceutical, and biomedical applications of recombinant DNA technology. This new edition offers greatly expanded coverage of directed mutagenesis and protein engineering, therapeutic agents and genetic engineering of plants. Updated chapters reflect recent developments in biotechnology and the societal issues related to it, such as cloning, gene therapy, patenting and releasing genetically engineered organisms. Significantly updated to reflect the advances over the past five years Over 200 new figures illustrate the added concepts and principles "Milestones" summarize important research papers in the history of biotechnology and their effects on the field Ideal text for third and fourth year undergraduates as well as graduate students. It is also an excellent reference for health professionals, scientists, engineers and attorneys interested in biotechnology
