Overview: .Molecular biology emerged from advances in biochemistry during the 1940s and 1950s, when the structure of the nucleic acids and proteins were elucidated. Beginning in the 1970s, with nucleic acid enzymology and the discovery of the restriction enzymes, the tools of molecular biology became widely available and applied in cell biology to study how genes are regulated. This new knowledge impacted endocrinology and reproductive biology since it was largely known that the secretion of the internal glands affected the phenotypes, and expression of genes. Modern reproductive biology encom

Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: Anna-Maria Schielicke beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob von einer Rückkehr der Religion in den öffentlichen Raum gesprochen werden kann. Der Frage liegt die Annahme zugrunde, dass Religion zunächst verschwunden war, gegenwärtig aber aufgrund bestimmter Ereignisse und öffentlich verhandelter Themen (etwa Terrorismus oder Gentechnik) wieder an Bedeutung gewinnt. Dabei kommt sie bei der Untersuchung deutscher Leitmedien anhand der quantitativen Inhaltsanalyse zu dem Ergebnis, dass ein gewisses Grundrauschen von Religionsbe

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The revitalisation of railway station areas has been a hot issue in policy making in Europe in recent years. The introduction of two new railway systems - the high speed train and light rail systems - has pushed forward the redevelopment of not only railway stations themselves, but also of their - in many cases deteriorated - direct surroundings. Examples of revitali- tion of railway station areas can be found throughout Europe, for example in countries like England (Liverpool), France (Euralille), Germany (Berlin) and the Netherlands (Amsterdam South

Overview: That residues of pesticide and other "foreign" chemicals in food­ stuffs are of concern to everyone everywhere is amply attested by the reception accorded previOUS volumes of "Residue Reviews" and by the gratifying enthusiasm, sincerity, and efforts shown by all the in­ dividuals from whom manuscripts have been solicited. Despite much propaganda to the contrary, there can never be any serious question that pest-control chemicals and food-additive chemicals are essential to adequate food production, manufacture, marketing, and storage, yet without continuing surveillance and intellige

Overview: This book is based on an advanced course of lectures on ribosome structure and protein biosynthesis that I offer at the Moscow State University. These lectures have been part of a general course on molecular biology for almost three decades, and they have undergone considerable evolution as knowledge has been pro­ gressing in this field. The progress continues, and readers should be prepared that some facts, statements, and ideas included in the book may be incomplete or out­ of-date. In any case, this is primarily a textbook, but not a comprehensive review. It provides a background
