Animal viruses are providing scientists with relatively simple models to study the molecular biology of genome replication and gene expression. Whereas viruses use, in general, pathways of macromolecular biosynthesis common to the host cell, they have a cunning ability to adopt unusual mechanisms of gene expression and gene replication, provided these special pathways offer an advantage in competition for cellular resources. Any study of viral gene expression and replication is likely to lead also to new insights in cellular metabolism. The discoveries of cis-acting regulatory elements in transcription, the phenomenon of splicing of pre mRNA, and cap-dependent and cap-independent initiation of translation may be cited as examples. In addition, animal virus genomes contain elements and encode proteins that are very useful for the design of vectors for gene cloning and expression in mammalian cells. Apart from the basic interest in their biology, viruses have gained notoriety, | 出版日期 | Book 1993 | 关键词 | Activation; Translation; Viruses; gene expression; genes; molecular biology; regulation | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-2928-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-6271-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-2928-6 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1993 |
