Prokaryotes are simple organisms (including bacteria) that are defined by the lack a nuclear membrane within the cells. Prokaryotic gene expression is of theoretical interest and is also of highly practical significance. It has implications for other biological problems, such as developmental biology and cancer, brings insights into genetic engineering and expression systems and has consequences for important aspects of applied research e.g. the molecular basis of bacterial pathogenicity has implications in antibiotic and crop development. Prokaryotic Gene Expression is a comprehensive and authoritative review of current knowledge and research. It will be essential reading for postgraduates and researchers and also useful for advanced undergraduates.
