Human Molecular Genetics has been meticulously crafted over successive editions to provide an authoritative introduction to the molecular aspects of human genetics, genomics, and cell biology. Maintaining the features that have made previous editions so popular, this fifth edition is completely updated in line with the latest developments in the field. Older technologies such as cloning and hybridization are merged and summarized, while coverage of newer DNA sequencing technologies has been expanded. Additionally, powerful new gene editing and single-cell genomics technologies have been added to ensure comprehensive content. The book also expands its coverage of GWAS, functional genomics, stem cells, and disease modeling, with a greater focus on inheritance and variation in the context of populations, as well as the role of epigenetics in gene regulation. Key features include a fully integrated approach to molecular genetics, an accessible text supported by superb artwork illustrating key concepts and mechanisms.
